The LinuxFest trade show will be held at the Overland Park International Trade Center and will feature over 60,000 square feet of trade show display space and a four day seminar track. TLS broadcast live to the greater Linux world from the TLS Pavillion on the floor of the Expo, featuring end-to-end coverage of the event. The TLS broadcast will include interviews of today's leading Linux community members and executives of leading Linux vendors. Recent spectacular IPOs by Red Hat, VA Linux, Cobalt and Andover.net have taken the stock market by storm and LinuxFest2000 will be the first opportunity for many in the Midwest to see what the excitement is all about. Major well-known companies like IBM, Compaq, Informix and Oracle have committed to Linux, however most people are exposed to Linux on a daily basis because Linux powers much of the World Wide Web. Most of the established major Linux companies will be represented, plus many startup cutting edge companies will also be in attendance.
