Hey all..

I'm not going to be in town this month, but one of the guys (Steve or Chuck or 
someone at SAC) is probably going to take care of the room and pizza and 
whatnot.

on the topic of presentations.. Is anyone going to come show off these cool 
new IBM Netfinity N2200 thin client's that everyone's so excited about 
playing with?

What have you don't with yours?  Have you got one yet?  I think AllGen still 
has a pile of them for $20 each.

Just remember..  Let them let you boot the thing and play with it for at least 
5-10 minutes.  If it blacks out or "smells funny"... don't buy it.  If you 
tell them that you're friends of the Rackspace crew or par of the local LUG 
crew, they'll probably let you open it up and peek inside.  Look for blown 
capacitors (those silver cylindrical things with metal tops).  If anything 
looks or smells funny.. ask for another one.. ;)

Anyway..

If anyone's going to present or show-n-tell anything that they would like put 
on the web site and.or archived.. let me know soon.  I fly out Monday night.
