Who Goes To CES?
itwbennett writes "The Consumer Electronics Association stopped letting actual consumers attend the gadget extravaganza years ago, but even so, plenty of attendees can't exactly be described 'industry affiliates'. IDG News Service turned up a motorcycle stuntman, a restorer of 8-track tapes, and a lot of folks who were there just for fun."
It's partly a comment on society, not the article in question. It seems every 5th article on /. is how the government wants to get involved in yet another area of life. Most recently is SOPA which is more related to CES than other examples. This article is another example of people introducing a non-problem as a problem.
It's also general sarcastic comment as to the newsworthiness of this article, which I did read, BTW. Of all the CES happenings, we this this?
I don't know, but it works for me.
