A group of evil carnies that run computer shows. Their web site is marketpro.com. However, they are not very bright. They can easily be tricked.

How to get free computer show entrances
(1) Bring computer parts in a hand-truck/box and say you work with __________ computer inc. (It works, trust me.)
(2) Bring parts before the show and ask for a "vendor badge". They cost $3-5 and all they are is a purple keychain, but gives you and anyone next to you all access for all of ther computer shows. (This one is slightly risky).

How to scare people's nuts off in a computer show.
Simple. Wear a T-Shirt or badge that says Microsoft. Perferably, with the Microsoft anti-piracy logo (the fingerprint). Make sure that the letters M-I-C-R-O-S-O-F-T are clearly visible to vendors, especially ones you hate. Look around for OEM packages of Microsoft products (that should not be sold without a computer). Additionally, you may want to ask for computer prices, with a calculator on hand and make sure your "purchase" will include a legitimate CD of Windows.

Why you should go to computer shows
This one is easy. To prowl around looking at a new Asus Motherboard, bother people about their typos buy really heavy stuff to save on S&H you would spend on online stores, but most importantly, stock up on their wide selection of DVD porn.
