Ideally, yes people bring there own, but not everyone has a computer/laptop.
@davis: By chairs I generally mean the sort for people to sit on whilst they listen to your speakers chat on about what ever topic. They could sit on the floor, but that might be a little to 'bohemian' for some of them ;-) By computers I generally mean something running Linux, (unless your doing a Windows--->Linux Migration) and pre-installed with what ever your talking about if your doing a tutorial, Internet helps if your referring to a web page, but can be distracting if everyone starts surfing, and not following you. How ever it can lead to some interesting audience participation.

I think we now we have three volunteers who can offer a physical venue for the LUG meeting,( we are flooded with so many choices now..) Can we draw up the agenda for that meeting?
