Wonder if we can borrow the three colourful chairs from the Ubuntu expo
kit; the harder probably is sneaking them into the exhibition, but if it's
done on the Tuesday, should be possible.

AFAIK, we have Alan Helmore-Simpson's 3 tablet PCs.  These have lots of RAM
but fairly pathetic CPUs so might be better for "pointing things out" rather
than demoing.

The builtin wifi doesn't work under dapper, but is sorted under edgy. I
fixed the pen-driver for them, but didn't push it into edgy in time, so that
will have to be custom installed.  I suspect these are best running
edgy---can whoever has the other two try to get them installed or
dist-upgraded?

I have a feeling this probably won't be a problem.

Somebody suggesting getting a chocolate fountain.  Ubuntu, brown, chocolate.
