So I missed this one from Sunday, but Chris Maxcer over at his "Maxed out" blog on System i Network had a summary of the Opening Session and made mention of the awards which were given out.

Sure, Chris was just summarizing the session, but heck, pretty much any time you can see your name in "lights" so to speak is a good thing. He had this comment on the Best New Session award:

"Judging by audience reaction, though, more than a few attendees appreciated Best New Session - 2007 winners Larry Bolhuis and Kevin Mort, who delivered, 'Pimp My i, Extreme System i Engineering'."
