Okay, so you’ve probably heard more than you want from me, word-wise, when it comes to SCALE 13x. So I’ll shut up now. But while I wait for the applause to die down, I will say that, from most standpoints, SCALE 13x was a remarkable success.

That said, here are some photos from the four-day event. SCALE 14x will pick up again next year in Los Angeles, more than likely at a new venue that will fit the size and scope of the show better (and at a venue, more than likely, with “Convention Center” at the end of its name).

SCALE Suehle

SCALE Media Temple
And what Linux/FOSS expo would be complete without…skeeball? The MediaTemple booth provided skeeball for those who wanted to try their skill at SCALE 13x. (SCALE photo by Dennis Rex, CC-by-2.0)
SCALE Linux install
It’s not all show at SCALE 13x. The expo holds its annual Linux Class for new users, where people install their distro of choice and are given instruction on how to use it. (SCALE photo by Sean McCabe, CC-by-2.0)
SCALE SaltStack
The SaltStack booth remained abuzz with activity during the course of SCALE 13x, in preparation for their upcoming Saltcon in Salt Lake City. (SCALE photo by Dennis Rex, CC-by-2.0)
SCALE Banks Family
SCALE is a family affair for the Banks family. Keila Banks, center, gave a talk in the SCALE: The Next Generation track, while, from left, Phillip Banks, Jr., Phillip Banks, Sr., and Hunter Banks work on support for the show. Phillip Sr. leads tours of the expo during the course of the show. (SCALE photo by Sean McCabe, CC-by-2.0)

    Thanks Larry!
    Your SCALE posts have been great.

    Next year some live streams? SCALE as it happens because
    some of us live in areas that don’t have any community of
    any kind. Share the wealth.
