I will bring a laptop that already has 7.3 installed but we can alter
it.
Sincerely,
Rock

i'll have a server available, running 7.2.  the CD contents of 7.2 and
7.3
will be copied to the disk and available via the network.  i'll provide
a
hub/switch and patch cables as well.  if the rest of the group can
provide
a sacrificial workstation or two (and maybe a laptop) we should have
everything needed.  we can use the existing monitors/kbd/mice in the lab
so there's no need to lug them around.  let me know if anything needs
anything else, i will try to round it up before we get started.
