If you make it a requirement some venue negotiations (like taiwan will
fail outright) there is unfortunately no good way to tell a hotel that
their IT infrastructure is total shit and you're going to show up and
bulldoze it into a hole, without either writing a huge check, or being
the secret service.

it requires that senior management be engaged, meeting planners and it
people simply don't have the authority to tear appart the hotel on
behalf of a customer.
