[TriLUG] non-X86 hardcore installfest interest?

[Vestal, Roy L.]

I have some old Pentium 133's that need to be desposed of if someone needs
them to be sacrificed to RA (the "sun" god)

Well, now that someone has blown the whistle on our little x86 bashing
session, we have to move it underground.  You'll now only be allowed in
if you bring an x86 CPU (CPU only!) to sacrifice.  Further, we'll all
stand around while you do harmful things to the little beastie before
you can graduate to real hardware.




Okay, so that probably isn't a requirement, but it should be.  At the
least, I think it would be fun.  I know I have more than my fair share
of 486 CPUs laying around, and I'm definately not averse to torturing
poor, defenseless hardware.
