I just returned from Houston where I attended the “HoustonWinMeet: A Windows Entertainment and Connected Home Meet-up”. What a great event. The venue was awesome and the night was well attended with about 40 home entertainment and home media enthusiasts on hand. We saw some cool presentations from Drew Peterson and Dan Laycock of Microsoft on Windows 7 Play To and Windows Product Scout. We also saw several cool new products which will be reviewed on www.missingremote.com in the near term. We finished with product demos and discussions from Ceton distributor Gregg Cannon from Cannon PC and Kevin Buchanan from Fluid Digital. The swag and prizes given in the after show raffle made me wish I had been and attendee, not a presenter.
Thanks to Michael Welter of MissingRemote, Peter Brown of The Green Button and Wendy Stidmon of Microsoft for coordinating this great event. I’d love to see similar events for enthusiasts throughout the country. For now, Houston has set the bar…
