Unfortunately, I have a meeting this evening in Vic. Park that I
*have* to attend.

I'll make every effort not to have a conflict forthe next KAC night.

I have my testing machine to bring along next week. 
	Via C3 833 MHz Mini-ITX, 256MB RAM, 80GB, 7200rpm hard disk
	with DVD and WinFast TV/FM radio card. It's kitted out to
	become a (Personal Video Recorder) PVR but somewhat short on
	RAM for video editing.
	SuSE 8.2 is loaded the Gnome and KDE (as well as other
	window managers) installed. Plenty of room to install
	additional applications off the DVD,

How are you going for networking?
