Security experts and hackers, gathered at the Marriott Renaissance Hotel to take part in a hacking contest. However, during day one the three laptop computers, where waiting to be tampered with. This yearly contest is known as the creative PWN2OWN Hacking Contest, with prices ranging from computers to cash for the best attack.

However, during the first day the attendees quickly headed to the drinks and food table and ignored hacking the computers. The organizers stated that this was normal as many hackers would avoid carrying out an attack on the first day when the contest rules were more stringent.
