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?
