Hi Sorry about the delay responding. The UMass mail server filled up last night and nobody seemed to be around to do anything about it. :-) / :-( > Doug, would you like to volunteer to bring your laptop? Will do. [It is just 400MHz but that just makes the grade for VLC :-) ] No DVD drive (just CDrom) so it would probably have to be the client. > We'll need a hub and some cables to build a network. I can bring "some cables". I shall also bring a hub [not a switch and it's only 10BaseT, but then too, so is my ethernet card :-( ] The URL says 6-9 or 3-4 mbits/s so we should just slip in under the wire. > in case doug can't make the meeting, Weren't you paying attention above?! :-) doug "let me pull your plug" waud

Hi all, Andy especially :-) Where do we stand re tomorrow's meeting. There was talk of an installfest but I have not noticed any further messages in that regard. Anybody know what's up? I don't want to go into plug-pulling training if there'll be no "event" where I can display my talents! :-) doug
