Line 46: Arguably, the biggest portion of OSCON is the OSCON expo. Here, vendors and other organizations show off their latest innovations, have smaller and shorter tutorials, give away keepsakes ("[[Promotional merchandise\|swag]]"), and talk to attendees about their products or any questions that attendees may have. Some companies that have had larger booths in the past few years include [[Linode]], [[Rackspace]], [[HP]], [[Bluehost]], and [[Microsoft]]. Finally, tables are usually set outside of the meeting rooms, for attendees to relax and work at. A sponsored "hack zone" is also setup just outside of the Expo Hall, where attendees may utilize fast networking, power strips, and chair-packed round tables to [[Hacker (programmer subculture)\|hack]], socialize, and take a break at. Through the main hallway, there is usually a large black box of sorts, upon which three surfaces are exposed. Affectionately known by attendees as "The Chalkboard", logos, slogans, names, ideas, and other marks are often scrawled onto by attendees using chalk provided in nearby cans. ==Locations==
