Excellent!  I have really wanted an excuse to set LTSP, but just didn't
see a need until you mentioned it.  Do you think you could make the first
meeting?  I will try to read up on LTSP again before the meeting so that I
may be useful; although, we will probably need to see what he has.  Would
we need an inventory of the hardware--specifics to make sure it is
supported?
