Some Americans would change their name just to get to WWDC 2012

  Yesterday Apple put the tickets for WWDC 2012 on sale and in less than two hours he managed to sell them all, although we are talking about several thousand such tickets whose starting price was $1600. Unfortunately, many developers failed to purchase such a ticket and of course the people who purchased them started to put some of them up for sale on US auction sites. The problem is that these tickets are non-transferable because they are sold based on the buyer's name and only the person who purchased them can enter WWDC.

  Well, for some the problem has a simple solution: changing the name. An American citizen published an ad on Craiglist in which he claims that he is willing to change his name in order to purchase a ticket to WWDC 2012. I don't know how real the ad is, but in the US anything is possible, so I don't think there would be many who wouldn't don't do something like that for Apple. Ticket prices for WWDC 2012 reach up to $3000 on eBay or Craiglist, so we're talking about 80-90% profit for some who bought the tickets sooner, but the problem is that they can't be sold easily.
