Very nice stuff, that's for sure (as are the others' presentations).

Or on a UNIX machine, can be converted via the ps2pdf utility. E.g.:

$ ps2pdf raibeck.ps > raibeck.pdf
$ acroread raibeck.pdf

(or xpdf raibeck.pdf, or transported to a Windows/Mac machine to view.)

A nice side effect of this conversion is that it shrinks the file size
for PDF by about 5.5 times without any apparent visual degradation. :-)

Can be fetched from:

I got my copy from my Linux distribution's package repository, so it was
a mindlessly quick fetch and install.
