The Comdex Exhibit Guest Pass (Probably marked as $100 on the website) always has Free registration forms in the major Ziff-Davis publications (PC Weak, PC Magize etc) And once you fill one of these guys out you start getting them in the mail, I figure I get 50+ Comdex books a year I have 4 for the Comdex Spring 99 sitting next to me.
If you don't get PC Weak, (which they also give out free subscriptions for) you can always harass your friends who work at companies that are attending (not exhibiting, just attending), they are likley have an extra pass or ten to give you.
The guest pass unfortunately doe not give you access to the "Linux Global Summit" thats $195 more.

Do you have any factual information to support your claim that the linux kernel is superior to FreeBSD's?
Further more, unified development will likley lead to less innovation. FreeBSD takes whats good from linux, linux takes whats good from FreeBSD. This leads to a better, faster, more secure and stable platform for both parties. Were we both to run Generix I suspect a "its not broke, don't fix it" mentaility would set in.
considering you would have to compare how similar things run on NT to get a feel of how well your OS is running. (not much of a compitition.) I've never found the claims of superiority over windows impressive, I do however find claims of superiority over xBSD or linux worth looking into.
IMHO the developemnt of these two similar operating systems, and that of all the other opensource OSes (OSie?) spur competition between each other that makes each respective enviroment better for the end user.
