Re: Chairs. How much do they want for the additional two chairs? Re: (2-) I will be there all day on the 23rd. From around 2:30 on the 22nd. I will bring my computer if someone will configure everything to run on it... Installing during the show might be a good thing to do. Re: (2-) The monitor is 19" but is 7 years old (and looks older). Looking old might be good. It shows that old hardware still has great value. Re: (4-) The 22nd and 23 being available for me. I'll get an email off the powers that be to see if the 22nd (half day) and 23rd are ok. I think it will be. Re: (4-) We have the possibility of having an Athlon XP 2000 (LTSP) with two (thin) clients. Using only one thin client will take up less real-estate (table space). Maybe we should only do one thin client. One should show the principle very well. The server can hide under the table to be exposed as needed. Question, do we really want to show LTSP? Or, will we be demonstrating to a market that isn't present? Re: (4-) and an Athlon XP (2200). Still looking for a box w/ power supply for this but it should be ready in time, if needed. It might be better off using someone else's machine with lots of good stuff installed. The groups call. Re: (4-) and a warm body. The opportunity (we never have problems, only opportunities) with warm bodies is that they take up as much space as knowledgeable bodies. Might not be a good use of floor space. My EGO never gets hurt. The purpose is to impress folks with Linux. I might be in the way and/or counter productive. Re: (4-) Is it possible to network the Athlons if they come? Yes. I can bring a 4 port switch (or is it a hub???). Re: (4-) Would someone happen to have a spare network card for me if I bring my computer? Yes, I assume this is a desktop (not a lap top) and has a spare PCI slot. Subject next: OfficeMax can make banners. I am thinking a 3x5' banner (complimenting the PLUG banner), Showing the benefits of something like "Open Office" or maybe "LTSP". I can afford to fund such a banner. What does the group think? What subject? What should be on such a banner? What colors would go well with the PLUG banner? Is there a better place than Office Max for banners? -----Original Message----- From: "Michael Havens" Subject: Arizona Technology Expo ~ What we know- Update Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2003 23:54:11 -0700 I just got word from Rich (the expo coordinator) that the extra chairs will be for a fee. So I suppose that we won't have 4 chairs but two. Okay, This is what we know: 1- The 23rd is the date of the expo from 9AM to4. Set up is the day before from noon til 6. the booth is 10 X 10 2- I will be there all day on the 23rd. From around 2:30 on the 22nd. I will bring my computer if someone will configure everything to run on it correctly (I am running M$ right now). The monitor is 19" but is 7 years old (and looks older). If I get it running with Linux (knoppix) I will bring a palm pilot. My printer will not come because it does not work. 3- Bill Lindley volunteered to be there (is it for all day Bill?) (Can you bring a computer?) 4- We have the possibility of having an Athlon XP (2000) with two clients and an Athlon XP (2200) and a warm body. Does this work with the date, George. Is it possible to network the Athlons if they come? Would someone happen to have a spare network card for me if I bring my computer? 5- Please tell me if you plan on coming to be a demonstrator. We are going to have 2 chairs total there. 6- Please add whatever you desire and we will discuss it (as we shall discuss the above points. --__--__--
