What exactly is the IBM exhibit? It looks like it's just them talking about their accomplishments in the last 100 years; that's hardly as interesting as the other exhibits in Innoventions.

Originally Posted By MamaTinkAz I have no idea what the IBM exhibit is. When I was there I really didn't understand it myself. They have a movie (which I didn't get a chance to see) and the interactive monitors on the wall I couldn't get it to work right and the woman next to me had the same issues. The big screens in the middle of the room are also interactive but all I was able to do was zoom in on a map. Not really sure what this exhibit is suppose to be. I did notice as I walked around innoventions there that on the second story there is more IBM stuff that maybe might be something more and make the other stuff that is open make sense.

The only thing I find lacking were the costumes the cast members in France are wearing in those presented pictures. It is unfortunate that with the now incredible variety of cast members costumes created and being displayed just for the New Fantasyland Expansion in the Magic Kingdom, that the cast members in France are seen wearing such generic uniforms. I can see the male cast members wearing chef like clothing. But wouldn't it be more appropriate for the female cast members to be wearing bland costumes. Here are pics from traditional costumes from Brenton. <a href="http://www.trekearth.com/themes.php?thid=7930" target="_blank">http://www.trekearth.com/theme...hid=7930</a>
