Hello, All!
I would like to bring a machine to the meeting tomorrow for setup, but no
one has responded to the formmail on the website. Will anyone be able to
help me if I bring a machine? Do I need to bring a monitor?
Some Qs:
Will my current stuff get trashed and need to be reloaded? ( I would assume
so).
How stable is a dual boot Linux/Win 9x machine?
Should I bring:
haha:
- 386 with no cdrom or network card.
maybe:
- Pentium 133 with cdrom and network card and 128 MB RAM
Don't really want to as it's my main machine:
- Pentium 500 with cdrom and network card and 128 MB RAM
Don't care, but don't think it'll work:
- Compaq Laptop Pentium 133 with cdrom and network card and 40 MB RAM.
Opinion? Contact point?
Will there be someone/anyone to help me?
Can I bring my boys? :) Big one (husband) takes care of the little one (7
months). :)
Thanks! :) c.
