OK, so I'm second in a two horse race :-) story of my life.....

Just a couple of comments to add:

I also have SUSE 9.3, and Mandriva 2005. If anyone really wants to play.

The SuSE 9.2 kits look real old fashioned. Even have fully printed user guides
:-)

100 of the DSE OO CD's to give away.

The Ubuntu & Suse demo systems are up & running. Mandrake to be done 1st thing.

I have the Dymocks books ready & have actually thrown my presentations together
already!!!

100 blank CD's & sleeves ready to go.

 
Silicon have the 19" TFT screen to give away- bring a business card (I can lend
you one of mine if you forget!)


See you all there,
   
   Brent
