I agree that the CD's are especially worthwhile. They contain multiple years of proceedings. I find the proceedings valuable because they often give insights into future releases and also insight into products that I might not have licensed at my site. You also get some valuable perspective on how others are using it, especially in terms of the amounts of data that can be handled.

Overall though, reading the proceedings is still a dilution of actually attending SUGI.
