...you suck!

Having a great time already and...yes, the super nerd that I am, I have my laptop with me with a wireless broadband card. I'm sitting in the tent for lunch, listening to the band and posting on the forum.

I dunno if I rule or drool. All I know is that I am way cooler than all of you cause I'm here and you're not! :p

    Poser. If you were really any kind of cool uber-nerd, you'd stream video for the unfortunates thru the webcam on your laptop.

    -or at least post jpegs.

    Have fun, Ace.;)

    BTW: YOU SUCK!

    I didn't realize it was in Baltimore. I guess that makes sense since that's where Polk's headquarters are located and I worked there for a time, heh.

    I should have stopped by. Oh well.

    Jstas, can't believe I didn't meet you today; I guess with around 60 polkies I've missed a few. I'll meet you tomorrow at Al's.

    All I can say is... the 6 hour round trip today was worth it. Wish I could've stayed for tomorrow's festivities, but you know... these things happen. Didn't win any of the awesome door prizes, but the hospitality of the Polk Audio crew was more than enough to make it a good day. Congrats to the folks who won some kick-**** gear... Brett, you're a lucky SOB, but then... you know that already.

    For those of you who missed it... well, you missed some good demos, including one of a product that may or may not see the light of the retail shelves. A completely custom speaker that was the brainchild of Matt... essentially a enormous surroundbar. Pictures will come as soon as I get them uploaded.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    hey jstas, with all your infinate wisdom, why not setup a live webcam feed of the fest?

    No "live webcam feed" because,

    #1 no web cam

    #2 not really allowed to broadcast secret stuff on the Intarwebs

    #3 not gonna blow by mobile broadband time on something so frivolous. You wanna see what's up, get your butt to a PolkFest. Stop whining about feeds on forums.

    #4 the general consensus has been to deem those who were not there unworthy of sharing in the festivities remotely. For the reason why, see #3.

    I have received a lot of benefits from attending Polkfest 2008 such as:

    1. Collector's items to sell on eBay at a handsome profit.
    2. Knife throwing tips.
    3. A demo of next generation SDA's.


    017DK-Matt-PolkFest2008-cr2r.jpg
    Times are hard, but I improved my financial condition at Polkfest 2008. I was able
    to persuade Matt to sign a stack of old Polk Audio ads so that I could sell them on
    eBay. They sold out in one hour.


    007MattKnife-s.jpg
    Matt takes aim. Someone made a smart remark about the home theater prototype sounding 10X better than the best SDA. Matt took out his throwing knife and made them take it back.


    008Sal-Matt-Signing-s.jpg
    Lasareath getting his SDA SRS 1.2TL crossover plates signed by Matt. Now, when you see his 1.2TL's up for sale on eBay, you will know the signatures are authentic.;)

    Full report, with pics and stimulating commentary, sometime next week.
