Well, will definitely have to say that todays was a real nice experience. Came across some strange facts which did shake our networking base but then it was fun, learning experience and one more assertion to the fact that -ve and -ve does make +ve.
But anyway though the install fest didn't go as planned, it was fun and probably the next one that we do will be a better and more successful, as today we concluded that, fest was not a total failure but definitely not a total success either, but a 50-50 case. But nevertheless we have to thank Praveen Dai, for letting us do all the crazy stuffs that we did there today and Brihaspati School for providing us their lab.
