  Boston.com / Business / Technology / Micro Macworld, major goals
Macworld's organizers and some exhibitors who are attending acknowledged yesterday that moving the convention reduced its appeal for many of the companies that helped make the event a must-attend for Macintosh enthusiasts through much of the 1990s.
Macworld's organizers have faced doubts about the change of venue since 2002, when they announced that the convention would leave the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York.
Microsoft, long a Macworld exhibitor, said in a statement this week that it is definitely not participating in this year's convention but that it will monitor the Boston event's success to determine whether it will participate in the future.

 Boston.com / Business / Micro Macworld, major goals
The success of Macworld will be watched closely, not only because of the venue change but because it is the first major convention slated for the recently completed $800 million Boston Convention and Exhibition Center in South Boston.
City officials negotiated for months to land Macworld, and IDG is not being charged for use of the convention center.
Because Macworld is smaller, the convention authority was able to book a second convention to be held simultaneously.

 Hey Apple: Let my people go (to Macworld)
After the Macworld PR folks disinvited him from the show, Scott got into an e-mail exchange with them (all of it duly published on his site, of course), in which he blamed his persona non grata status not on the flacks, but on Apple itself.
It's certainly possible that the Macworld conference people (part of the IDG colossus) aren't very smart and are alienating the e-zines all by themselves, without any prompting from Apple.
I didn't attend MacWorld for more than a decade because the show's organizers acted like it was such a big favor to give someone a press credential.

It was at Macworld Expo in 2002, for example, that Apple debuted the original flat-panel iMac.
Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster said the hype for this year's Macworld is particularly strong, coming not only from Mac fans but from Wall Street and the mainstream media.
With the Macworld announcements, Wall Street is looking for Apple to prove that the iPod is not a one-hit wonder and deliver on predictions that it will convert some iPod buyers into Mac users.

The five-day Macworld Creative Pro Conference and Expo -- possibly the last Macworld to be held in New York City -- may not draw even half as many attendees and exhibitors as last year's and surely will not come close to the nearly 90,000 attendees at the annual Macworld Expo in San Francisco in January.
The Macworld New York attendance record is 64,000, set in 2001.
While the turnout for Macworld San Francisco has remained strong, other tech conventions such as Comdex in Las Vegas are also scaling back due to the tech industry slump.
