Reminder: Tomorrow night Linksys will present "Current Wireless trends" at
the Orange County Cisco Users Association meeting.
Mike has confirmed he is coming. If anybody wants to do a book review, web
site review, tools compendium/other quick presentation afterwards that'd be
fine too. Maybe somebody could fill us in on the NetWorkers conference and
the recent fuss regarding Cisco's new push towards IPV6???? We will be
looking for topics for the next few months so please don't be afraid to
contribute (most likely if you are reading this you know more than me).
Where and When:
New Horizons, Anaheim, CA

BTW - no food for right now at least so get a tofu burger on the way.
Further - The Angels are playing in Baltimore (away game) so parking is not
a problem.
Hope to see you there.
