Perhaps, but that's "old tech". I'm spending the two weeks before
BorCon recording a whole slew of camtasias to render to flash and
provide to my tutorial attendees. That way, they can replay the demos
and even hear some of the original artists (the engineers) discussing
the features they've done.

It's a bit of a risk because some might complain about some parts of my
tutorials being "canned" but this is all new stuff that I'm putting
together explicitly for my tutorials so that people can take it away
with them.

... and to save my voice ;)

Maybe I can even take a quick bathroom break while playing one of the
longer ones.

Not all of the demos will be pre-recorded because I think I simply
won't have the time, but I'm going to generate as many as I can.
Probably around 2 hours worth of material that I'll put up as BDNtv
episodes when we launch.
