Putting on a company meeting the last week of June, would prefer it be someplace in the "central" us that is easy and somewhat cheap to get to.Any ideas?My thoughts so far are:Boulder, COAustin, TXMemphis, TNNew Orleans, LAChicago, IL --> probably 86 this just due to price. Hotels downtown in the summer are awful and we need a meeting room

Where are the offices located that you worry most about distance wise?Do a good chunk of those attending bring the wife and kids since school is out?How many people are you expecting to attend?Each of these dictates a part of my response.J

All men, Boston, LA, Detroit. Distance isn't that big of a deal as getting home on a Thursday night after 5 is the only concern. Easy to fly West. This eliminates the West Coast though. Has to be at least Mt. Time.

I am thinking Reno, Boulder, Memphis, Louisville, and Miami.Reno- Shit to do after meeting, decent night life, hookers for the poor souls who want to spend on some strangeBoulder- also great night life, and smaller cities so the cost should be easy to work withMemphis- BBQ, Blues, and just one hell of a city. Tons of history tooLouisville- why not look into a place that makes some of the best bats used in baseball today?Miami- the beaches, bikinis.....enough saidI can see all these cities working, and being a good place to do a meeting at a good price.J

THanks J.Reno is way too far West.Louisville - baseball isn't a sport so... :PMiami isn't so "Central"Glad to see our lists interweave themselves though

Reno and Miami only made the lists as they are cities where a businessman can have fun relatively easily without the wife getting pissed, and they do cater to a good number of conferences and tour groups.

Louisville only got he nod because the average American thinks baseball is one of the best things since sliced bread.

I would love to reccomend Buffalo, San Antonio, Indianapolis, and St Louis as well. I won't for the following reasons

Buffalo- shitty airport, not a great nightlife unless you are 19-27or want to drive into Canada, or have a thing for casinos.

SA- beautiful city, lots to do, great airport. Shitty to drive around, and confusing as hell even with GPS

Ind- Great city, great airport, not happy with food or hotels I saw while there last, a bit pricey too.

STL- fun city, but kinda dangerous, not my type of place for a business meeting, but they do have a good bit of shit to do.

Aside from location and a good price what else should the city provide?

Got in my Rosewill RCW-608 R adapter in, So I will be able to pull some old pics of installs from some former hard drives..I have a boat load of music that I could transfer,and software from the day out the ass..Was thinking of getting a SSD drive for my install..H/U is a Pioneer DEH-X9500BHS..Any suggestions? figured this would be the best way for me to transfer data..As I have tons of PC's but do not operate a active desktop these days only laptops..
