The Summer 2008 edition of the Alford INSIDER is now in print. One page wasn't enough to show just what it takes to load a truck that is headed to a show. It required the front and back cover and an extra fold-out page just to fit it all in. Once you get past the really cool cover image, you'll find articles like HD and the "R" Word that covers the emergence of High Definition in the AV Industry and our cover story, Well-Oiled & Fine-Tuned that takes you behind the scenes to expose the logistics of getting a show from bid to ballroom. There are more photos than ever before and our regular AV Update will keep you up-to-date on what is happening in all of our individual departments.
