Hopefully you will be able to have another meet sometime as well. I would love to try out the skiing there in Colorado. I'm about the same distance between you and Tony Fabris, and one of these days I will make it to one of the meets in northern California, or Colorado.

Ok, who for sure is coming? We are down to about 4 or 5 people so I need to know in the next couple of days how many for sure. I might cancel it this year if enough people aren't coming and I also just put an offer on a house tonight and if accepted, I probably should be saving my money and vacation time. But if there are enough people I will go ahead and hold it anyway.

If I were you, I'd imediately drop the reservations on the cabins, save perhaps one. Up to five people can easily share one of those, and..

Ok, I'll drop it down to one or two cabins and still have it. And if I get this house I've put an offer on, we will have the meet there next year. It's a log home in the country with a couple of acres that some could sleep inside and some could camp outside of. There's enough room to park 7 or 8 cars also.

My Cartman imitation is not as good as my Nelson Muntz or my Homer Simpson. But yes.

It's been suggested that I get a giant Cartman poster for my door with "Screw you guys, I'm going home" in a speech bubble, which would be amusing since the office i didn't want is right inside the door when you come into our department.

Here is my formal "I'm coming" post. Just trying to decide whether to drive the 1800 mile round trip or fly...Now was the t-shirt deadline this thursday or last thursday? If it's not too late I'll take one in "One McDonalds too many" size. (XL)

Who wants memory installed at the meet?

Well the t-shirts don't have a deadline right now because Rob is off on vacation and can't get them until he gets back so they will be late. I'll have to mail them to you when they do come.

I'm glad that you are coming as neither of my empegs are working right. I know the one has the IDE header solder problem and the other one is either that or the hard drive.

I knocked us down to two cabins yesterday so somehow we will work that out. And I got word late last night that the offer on the house I made got accepted more or less so now I'm going to be a stressed out mess this month trying to get my house sold and prepare for moving, gee. Bad timing.

Different chips for the Mark2 and Mark2a... Sorry.

If anyone needs them, I have a bunch of the Mark2a chips available. I will not be at the meet, but I can send a bunch down.

Maximum upgrade for an Mk2 is 16mb until Patrick does his memory board. According to this post by Hugo, the chips for the mk2 probably aren't available anymore (although he said he had a bunch of them). I just PM'ed him to see if he could send one over before the meet. If anyone else knows of a source for them post here...I couldn't find one with a bbs search.

If he will send them, want me to ask him to throw one in for you too?

I already heard back from Hugo, and he said he sent a bunch of Maczrool a few months ago. I've contacted him via the website to see about getting some. If so I'll bring them to the meet.

That reminds me, I need to order 2 long cables before the meet.

Paul, how much are the memory chips? I might want some.

I have a friend that's interested in having his upgraded as well. He wants to know how much you're charging.

Mk2a - $50.

Mk2/Mk1 - I have to check whether upgrades are possible. Aside from different chips, the last word I heard, Patrick was concerned that the Mk2 wouldn't support additional capacitive loading, and I'm not yet sure if the kernel changes made to enable extra memory will work with Mk1 upgrades.

Lemme go see.
