I attended last year’s conference which was the first one and I must say, I enjoyed it. It was worth every penny. But it was RM50 last year for students :P . And I got a lot of freebies; a cool Fedora collared shirt, an awesome Red Hat t-shirt , a collared shirt from Solaris and a lot other stuffs like stickers. A friend of mine even got a headgear with LED’s from FreeBSD!
