I just got back from a conference in Vegas.  Tuesday evening I headed over to the Pinball Hall of Fame.  If you're ever out that way you have to check the place out!  I was only able to stay there two hours (since I wanted to get back on the city bus before dark) but I was able to play all of the electro-mechanical machines.  There are about 150 pinball machines and about 50 EM and video games in the place.  No admission to PHoF, you just have to pay for your games.  I was surprised at the amount of people there - a few teens, some college kids, there were even a few guys in their 40's and 50's who were in suits (probably stopped by for a few games on the way home from work).  Next time I am going to have to get there way earlier in the day!

Your buddy was at the same place as me - NAB (National Association of Broadcasters).  It's a HUGE convention of everything you need to make radio and TV (including the helicopters!).
