It was indeed awesome and far better than I had anticipated. The talks were
incredibly informative (sometimes even in areas that I thought that I knew
quite well), and a lot of good discussions took place. It's amazing how
different it can be to discuss things in person, and I think that we all
benefited from it.

One cool thing along these lines that Iain told me about was that after his
gdc talk, someone came up to him and just offered him a mac mini that they'd
had lying around! He didn't ask any money for it. He just asked for Iain to
make gdc awesome. Iain was blown away by that.
