As children we went to the CeBit to raid the booths of Commodore, Atari and others (a friend of mine brought back 2kg of stickers one day), and as a student I worked there each year as a night guard (Silicon Graphics, best booth evah!). But obviously times have changed. One could argue that the technology presented at the CeBit made the CeBit obsolete. Still, feels a bit sad to see it go.
