Paris Expo attendance down, but UK MacExpo promises large A le booth

The A le Expo in Paris this year saw a drop in attendance from about 56,000 attendees last year down to 46,000. The downward trend from the 2000 Expo, which saw 80,000 attendees is even more dramatic. Even with the drop, however, the Paris A le Expo still boasts higher numbers than recent Macworld Expos in San Francisco, which hosted le than 40,000 attendees in January 2006. The Paris decline was blamed on A le's failure to give a keynote eech this year, amongst other things.

Both Paris and San Francisco still to le London's MacExpo, which attracts an average of 25,000 visitors a year, hopefully including this year where MacExpo kicks off in two weeks. The show will benefit from a confirmed larger A le booth than last year as well as a major a ouncement during the Quark Keynote presentation.
