Testimonials from fans around the globe helped prove that attendees or on-line attendees were more than satisfied with
Vir-Con and its multi-media event:

“I have to admit, I had my doubts about being able to pull off something like this, but surprisingly I encountered few technical problems, got to meet a lot of great people, and it was so nice to get to see some of the convention live, since they never have them in my area anymore.”
Shannon Nutt of Pittsburgh, PA

“This was my first convention (virtual or real) and I had no real expectations. I was there just to watch the video events and attend the chats. What I got was a life-changing experience.”
Christine Monnier of Naperville, IL

“I …felt that I was part of a revolution in cyber culture.”
D. David of New City

“We hope you guys can make this a more frequent service. Vir-Con has allowed us to reach out from across the Pacific.”
Paolo Jalbuena, Philippines

“As a fan who attended the convention online, I wanted to praise each and every one of you. On behalf of the entire ‘Federation’, I salute you all for your work to make the event so wonderful.”
Russ Haslage, President of the International Federation of Trekkers

Of particular note was the response:

“Vir-Con is the next-step in humanity's technological potential and demonstrates our progress toward a real Star Trek future.”
Eugene Roddenberry, son of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry
