Yes, LinuxCon registration is $499.00 - but various discounts are available;
Randal Schwartz was offering one, and other ticket promotions are available
(ask Google.com).

This should be a great "first" Con event in the land of the OSDL, Linus,
Freegeek, etc.

Gas will cost about $200.00 both ways in my car and take 20 hours driving
each way, which would be split by the number of riders.

I am trying to hook up lodging with friends in Portland (where I lived for
many years) so I don't have to pay hotel/motel costs also.

LPI certification is available from the CON also, should that assist anyone
making the decision?
