So, when Microsoft puts in a bid for it to be held at Redmond (?) USA, 
it will be held there?

Microsoft has lots of money. It could put in a far better (?) bid than 
anyone else.

Or, if SCO puts in a big bid, to make that the "best bid", will the 
conference be held at SCO headquarters in the USA?

Is Linux Australia going to surrender the conference to the highest 
bidder, for making the "best bid" ?

And, a bid from either company, could be regarded as "a serious bid", 
could it not?
