FreeBSD Install-A-Thon for September 1999

The next FreeBSD Install-A-Thon will be held on September 25th at the Oakland Convention Center in Oakland. These Install-A-Thons are held in conjunction with The Robert Austin Computer Show which runs from 10am to 4pm.

Robert Austin Computer Shows has new pricing policy for addmission to their shows. Admission is now $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for children, ages 5 to 15. Presumably children under 5 are free. However if you go to their web page , and register for their VIP tickets, you will be able to get in for free.

Bring us your tired, you poor, your trashed installations and we'll fix them! Don't bother to bring your keyboard or monitor as we will have spares at the show to work with.

We could use some help with borrowing hardware and doing installs. If you feel like helping out drop either Josef Grosch or Nicole Harrington email.
