ADHOC-MacHack– attend to learn, not just get the free goodies!

ADHOC attendees have seen it all. And, we’re inviting you to join us! ADHOC thrives on developer interaction. Unlike any other conference, here is where you are encouraged to share your knowledge with others around you. We’ll have sessions on how to jump over hurdles in getting code ready for Intel-based Macintosh computers, how to prepare for changes in hardware, how to deal with the press in marketing your software, and how to do plugins that work with Palm and Windows Mobile devices.

This year REAL Software is giving each ADHOC attendee a free copy of REALbasic Professional Edition and engineers will be on hand to introduce attendees to using it. Instead of having to maintain different code trees for different platforms, programs written with REALbasic automatically work for Macintosh, Windows and Linux.

For all the details, please check out our website at http://www.adhocconference.com. The conference happens at the end of this month, July 27 – 31 in Dearborn, Michigan.

ADHOC/MacHack Sessions & The Transition to Intel

Apple is moving to Intel — Don’t Panic!

Come to ADHOC 2005 and learn what developers need to do.

Held in Dearborn, Michigan from July 27th through 31st (a little over a month after WWDC), ADHOC has always been focused on giving developers the edge when it comes to using the latest & greatest technologies to navigate your code from start to finish. Now that Mac OS developers have yet another transition to deal with, the conference also known as MacHack is here as always to help the navigation go smoothly.
In addition to talking about the move to Intel, developers will also be networking and talking about their experiences using open source code (where to find it and how to use it), developing for a multi-platform world, getting tasks programmed easily and quickly using RealBasic and Cocoa, how to take advantage of the latest enhancements to Mac OS 10.4.

Here is just a sampling of the sessions already on the schedule:

  • Supporting Intel Macs: The Easy Stuff

  • Supporting Intel Macs: The Nitty Gritty
  • Cross-Platform Approaches from a Macintosh Perspective
  • Inside Dashboard Widgets
  • Techniques for Using Network or Local Resources under Carbon
  • Hacking the Press (getting your software noticed by the media, so it gets noticed by your potential customers!)
  • How to Write Windows Mobile Plugins & Palm Conduits
  • Successful Project Management

Take a look at the list at http://www.adhocconference.com/sessions. More sessions to be scheduled soon!

Because ADHOC is a conference organized by developers for developers, if you have talents & techniques & tips you’d like to share with your peers, please consider presenting your own session as well. Speakers who contribute to the content of ADHOC get an additional discount on registration, and the last day for early registration is June 30th, so register today!
