I gave my first demo on Feb 18 @ 5pm. It was on Netbeans 6.0. Alan Morris showed up to give me moral support. I really thank him because I needed it! I was demonstrating the new features in v6(The CS dept still had v4.0 installed on all of the systems). I had 26 people (students and faculty) show up. At first I thought only a few people (there were 6 at the time I started) would show, but about 10 minutes into the demo, I had a professor bring in her C++ class because they wanted to know about Java. After answering some questions about the differences between the languages and how easy it is to learn Java, I showed them how to use use Netbeans to help them learn. Everyone had fun and plenty of questions. It lasted about an hour, then I had everyone go to one of the classrooms for some pizza and drinks. Can't help but say I'm psyched for the next demo!
