Subject: Re: CEntOS at the WestSide
I have a few copies left from the ASULUG installfest (CD & DVD) but no way of
getting them to the west side metting. If some one requests it I can take a
few copies with me to the Muse some evning and they can be picked up thier.

Or if some one wants to meet me out at ASU West on wednesday I can bring a
copy.
