Title: Can we have some freebies?
Post by: Mark on October 16, 2013, 10:06:16 AM: Anyone from Autodesk out there? Can TheSwamp have some Autodesk goodies to give away? T-shirts, backpacks, ball caps, etc.. Maybe even some software!

Thanks! :-)

Quite honestly, I would be quite surprised if Autodesk would even consider providing comps.

But that is just my opinion.
