Suggested demos(presentations) needing a champion where "Demonstration"
means: Normally one (instructor/demonstrator) to few (as many as can look
over the demonstrators shoulder) students and normally presented in a
room with much other activities going on.

-------------------------------
The remaining orphans need TLC from a loving parent (champion)
Anywhere you see "___" might be a place for your name!!!
-------------------------------

  ___Viewing FAX(s)
___________________

Materials:
    The start of a list.  Let me know which you can bring off-list.  We
    will cc the plug list daily.
  General
    ___Banner Ad, Web Site
      We need a banner ad for the InstallFest. We want to put it up on
      the web site. See the space next to the PLUG logo for canvas size.
      Per Hans.

___________________
Support Hardware:
  ___LTSP Clients up to 4 more
     LTSP clients Need no Hard Drive.  32 meg of memory is sufficient.  A
     NIC card supported by ROM-A-MATIC or with an Etherboot (TFTP) NIC.
     I should be able to come up with a couple more Linksys NIC's (if
     someone has boxes) with boot floppies (or onboard etherboot chips)
     but they require 200MHz of better.

Working Computers:
    Let me know if we have missed any catagories here.
  ___Apple G3
  ___Firewall Distro
