Considering the impressive amount of news and updates they had this year i wouldnt be surprised if they didnt go.
Or maybe they will go last minute and do a special "making of" of the new logos.

As Autodesk isn't listed on the floor plan,
one can only assume they are experimenting with a booth in the cloud... :D
Stay safe, sane & healthy!

Autodesk not having a booth will be a bummer, but honestly, I never spent much time there since they ignore Softimage, except for a 30 min presentation from Mark. Has anyone heard from Mark? Is he still employed with Autodesk? Sad his last blog post was from Oct 2012.

Shame the SideFX user meeting is also on Tues (7/23). I would have liked to attend that as well, but I registered for Autodesk.

I'm interested in purchasing a 3d printer. Kinda shocked yesterday to first read that Amazon was gonna sell Makerbots (they now ship within 1 week of ordering), and then to read that Stratasys bought Makerbot!!

Gonna have to skip the User Group meeting.... Too much work to finish up, and it'd probably take me 2 hours to drive down to Anaheim now...
