PDXLAN 15 i am Planning on going Jan 15-18 fri,sat,sun,mon

Just starting the planning they have 214 seats left it is going to be crazy the main reason $1500 cash prize for the case mod. looking to share a room with 2 others. plane tickets not sure yet probley $250 hotel for 3 nites $300 split 3 ways entry $69

Why not go to Quakecon in Dallas Texas. They gave away a $52,000.00 2010 Mustang GT500 Coupe! news.quakecon.org/

Your looking at $360 to leave from fort wayne, and $315 from Indy round trip.
Why not just drive, it's only a 36 hour drive one way straight through! LOL

I saw it maybe we can all go to that one . I found some tickets around $258 for a flight out of chicago straight through... Alaska airlines !!!! read up on PDX lans they are to me catered to teh everyday gamer not the professional ones. my guess total $500 to $700 bucks!!! 5 day vacation not bad

What's the nighmare look like in getting your PC & Monitor there? I'm not sure i'd trust packing both in a suitecase and hoping for the best, and i know they won't let you carry-on, especially yours with the water cooling.
I think this is out of my budget, but i would love to hit the million man LAn in KY or something else that big and only 4-5 hours away.

option 2 7 day Road trip I always wanted to see the mountains (well i have flown over them ) ( at nite)

you know you can get cars cheaper by not booking at the airport, because the airport has their own taxes they charge.
I know i'm not available to go, to take off more than a day with a baby on the way, the wife would leave me!
so i'll quit posting on your thread sine i'm just stiring the pot :=D

like i said i am just in teh planning stages Gas would cost $541 round trip LOL

Then your planning on shoving 4 people and their computers along with changes of clothes and personal effects into a midsize car? LOL this is kinda funny to watch cometogether. You'd be better off just flying! Still am courious about how you'd get the computers there by flying...

flying seems like the best option to me 36 *24*24 plastic tote. It might be consider excessive luggage. If it weigh less than 80lbs its $50. I took a mountain bike to az in a box and didnt get charge a dime it was my only luggage i had my clothes in teh box as well.

JJ, is this plan still in the works?

when is it!!!! nope i will be in indy with you
