    I'll probably bring an 17inch monitor instead, that's a lot lighter than
    the trinitron tube in the Iiyama.

    Tuesday morning early. I don't have time to come on Monday evening,
    it's 150km from my home (Almelo).

    I have one, and can probably bring another (normal) chair in the car.

    I also have colour A3's printed (by Ard van Breemen at Telegraafnet
    (where they use debian :-) ), I still have to cut and paste them into
    an A1. Hope have time to do that Monday evening (one of each).

    I use coax. I also have a number of AUI to BNC converters if necessary.

    I'll bring an extension cord, and also a couple of "stekerdozen".
    I don't think I'll bring my Sun IPC, as I haven't updated that in a
    _long_ time (although I could reinstall there :-) I won't bring the
    Sun monitor either, should be able to disply on the 17" (I'll test
    first).

    Does anyone have a system with USB? Then we can take pictures and
    display them... (I have a digital camera).

    How about sound? Should I bring my speakers?
