The prizes for Iron Coder at C4[2] have been announced: A MacBook Air loaded with more than $5,800 (MSRP) of software for first place and “just” the software for second! Gah! Now I really wish I’d been able to go so I could…watch the award ceremony.

That’s just software created by attendees. It’s an impressive Who’s Who of companies and applications, all sitting down together in a conference room for the weekend.
