During HCT amu installed Debian in a Demo session with X and KDE
in very short time.  Either that was a very fast machine or this
setup is not that big.

Err... err...  LinuxTag is not a hack center either.  Sorry, but I need
to disagree with you in this particular thing.  In 2001, however,
I was able to create a specialized hack center *additionally* and in
2002 there was free space outside the booths fortunately that could
be used for hacking.
