Adam Engst Reviews ADHOC 2004

In his fine publication TidBITS, Adam Engst wrote up his experiences of the 2004 ADHOC/MacHack conference.

Select quotes, to show how cool we are:

"It's almost impossible to convey how much fun people have at ADHOC, but suffice to say that there are people who use vacation time to come each year."

"The entire point of ADHOC is community, and the hotel lobby is always occupied by attendees working on their hacks or just hanging out and talking. Deals are made, relationships are cemented, and the standard farewell is, "See you next year, if not before."

"In short then, whatever that elusive thing that set MacHack apart from every other conference was, ADHOC had it. The familiar faces were there, the sessions were good, the demos were amusing, and this year I managed to hook up with the group making the annual pilgrimage to Zingerman's, an absolutely stunning deli in Ann Arbor."

2004 Showcase Demos

Here are the entries for the 2004 Showcase. Note that these are all written in three days or less, most take advantage of strange and undocumented methods of accessing your computer. In all likelihood, they won't run at all, and any that do run will, without a doubt, cause your computer to catch fire, will kick your dog, or do something else so hideously awful that you would be foolish to even look at the source code, much less install and run the things. If you ignore the above advice, at the very least back up all your data, keep a fire extinguisher handy, and don't let the dog into the room. You have been warned, and neither the individuals who wrote the entries nor the ADHOC volunteers nor Expotech will take any blame or liability for the terrible, terrible things that will happen to you when you do what you're about to do.
