So who wants to see the Disney A/V magic from the inside

[Raulandpinboy]

I'm going to Infocomm 2003 which is being held at the Orlando Convention center, but this time two item in the menu caught my eye. I listed them below.

Infocomm by the way is all the really cool AV techno stuff that most of us will only dream about.

For me this will be great because I can go back some 12 years later and see it all again as a VIP guest.

So if you have ever wondered how all this stuff works, and your going to be here around the time that infocomm is here go take a look and maybe sign up.


For the cost of the tour you get to go to the exhibits for free so if anybody is interested go here

If I was going to be down there at that Time I would be interested. Unfortnately I won't be down until the Toontown event.

Why, oh why, could this not be scheduled for the next week when we'll be there for Toontown?

This would be a fantastic tour.
