Hi Ok, so the mini install fest is on 19. Ok What i can bring: RH 7.3 and RH 7.1 , if i can get it till then RH 8.0 and maybe some older distros. Hardware wise i can`t be of much help. BUT. I have got a Tandy 1000 (XT) puter, if anyone has an idea if there is a linux to go on that, i will bring it along :-) My target is to make it a serial terminal for my main box :-) I will also bring my favorite screw-driver with me, just in case some hardware needs to be assembled ... What about drinks and snacks ???
Cheers Szemir Ps.: Yes i agree with your opinion, as to reduce human skin , and increase technical and financial data to support the idea of open source and linux usage. A good presentation of technology paired with a great working live show to demonstrate the functionality can and will turn heads around and clean the rusty cogwheels of thought in some heads.
