I talked to a woman on the phone about it and she said the minimum size 
for a booth is 100 square feet, at 50 dollars per square foot, which is 
five thousand dollars...A friend of mine suggested I ask them if they 
have booths available for non-profit groups, because a lot of the booths 
are for companies like Novell and stuff.

I was told I'd receive an e-mail today with some more details, but 
haven't gotten anything yet.  I received a call from them while I was at 
work, but couldn't answer the phone and they didn't leave a voicemail. 
If I don't get an e-mail in the next day or so I'll call or e-mail them.

I was supposed to receive the e-mail from Christian, whose contact info 
is listed here: http://www.linuxworldexpo.com/live/12/exhibitors//products.

I'll let everyone know what's up tomorrow.
