The auction is now closed... Thanks to all who
participated in the Post-Conference Auction, and
congratulations to all of the auction winners! We hope
you enjoy the schwag you won, and we thank you for your
support of the Chicago IDSA. Participants have been
contacted via email with the final status of their bids-- if
you have any questions, please contact
Tim Copeland:
Thanks to all who attended
the 2004 Midwest IDSA Conference! It was an overwhelming
success that packed a lot of content into such a small weekend--
but in all of the excitement we neglected one thing-- the
product auction. Yes, we see the irony in product designers
overlooking the product, but our loss is your gain; this is
your opportunity to score some swank products for cheap
and support the Chicago
IDSA at the same time!
Auction
Procedure:

two weeks. It will end at 6:00PM on Friday, July 2nd.
