How should we plan as a group?  If we will be setting up a few networked
machines, should we not set them up and make everything work before the
event.  I have a couple 20" monitors at work right now that nobody is using,
would these be good for a booth?  Should we show Gee Gosh type stuff like
music and video?  It's really hard to demonstrate how well an Apache server
runs, or how secure OpenBSD is, or a lot of other things, at a booth.  I
think My firewall is cool, but it's glitz that attracts people.
        Am I not in the right frame of mind here?  What has been done in the past?
