Hi folks -
I'm a lurker here, but have some questions on this since it's 
something I'd like to attend if it works out.

If bringing a computer, should it have linux installed or no?  Is this 
"play around with an already installed system to learn the tricks" or 
"walk through an install starting from scratch" ?  Are we focusing 
on any one distro?

Would someone be able to give myself and a computer a ride to 
and from?  I'm in Squirrel Hill.

And should I still attend if I can't bring a computer (get a ride) ?

I do hope to get to this, and look forward to replies (copy me 
privately if sending back to the list, I'm on digest).  Thanks.

All the best,
Peter
