I will be at church for Maunday-Thursday services so I won't be able to attend. But I'll be able to bring at least one laptop running Ubuntu. I'll also bring a long extension cord and a surge protector. I have a ton of equipment so if you guys need something else specifically email me and I will probably have it. I can even get a projector if you want something larger for demos and stuff.<br> <br> Eddie Martinez wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:2791b3a20803191430y339a62bega89098d4bc0f446f@mail.gmail.com" type="cite">yes, we will have a table on Saturday I premuse.
