Actually, not the same .. the benefit to having two booths that are 'far
apart' is that you stand a better chance of *everyone* seeing you ... some
ppl pre-pick where they want to go at conventions, to the point of
'mapping their route', so there is a chance that they won't even go near
the .Org pavillon since they are there to see a specific vendor ...
