i had the same feelings about the "advanced 4.2bsd internals" tutorial
(or whatever it was called) that i attended at the salt lake city
usenix.  i felt that it was for the most part a waste of my time and
my school's money.  everything that was covered was already covered by
one or more of the documents in volume 2c of the 4bsd upm.

equally annoying was that an appreciable amount of time was wasted
during the class because there were contests by the various nerds in
the class trying to prove how they were more knowledgeable and
wizardly than the instructor and everyone else.
