Great! OTOH, I agree that sending a HEADUP email to the list next tuesday might be fine too. I'll promise I will do my checkout the day before ;) About the network connection: there's 2048 kbit available and it'll be Wireless. Hubs are available too, but bring your own cable. Right now, there's about 45 attendees so it should be fine, but doing 45 x 40 mb downloads simultaniously will be awfull.... Thanks Arjé
