I could certainly help load that Thursday, but I won't be able to fit much, if any additional, gear into my car. Should I be taking the two 19" CRT I've been holding since last year, or did we decided to go 15-17" only this round? <div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Apr 5, 2009 at 5:55 PM, <<a href="mailto:charles@bityard.net">charles@bityard.net</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi everyone, Jeff and I have been talking recently about the best way to get all of the terminals down to Penguicon this year. In years prior, we have loaded up the supervan floor to ceiling with monitors, terminals, and other equipment but this year, that may not be an option. These are the possibilities we're looking at: 1) Split up the load amongst multiple vehicles. Thursday night, in lieu of a GLLUG meeting, we would meet up somewhere in Lansing (or Jeff's place) and everyone would take what they could into their own car/truck/whatever. The hard part is figuring out how to get all the equipment back to Jeff since people tend to leave the con at different times on Sunday. (It's my understanding that he won't be around on Sunday to receive the equipment even if you bring it right to his house.) 2) Enlist someone else to drive the supervan down to the con and return it to Jeff afterward. 3) Use another vehicle. A large van, a pickup truck, or medium-size trailer would work splendidly (as long as it has shock absorbers and they are functional) and we'll even arrange a loading party in your honor. Other ideas are welcome and encouraged. We're geeks, we can generally figure these things out efficiently as long as no one starts an argument about which Linux distribution is best.
