    Linc, waiting for the show to start

    Ladies and Gentlemen, we present to you Linc Fessenden and his prized lap top. If we are not mistaken, that is PII Around 400mhz (Well we are not mistaken, ahem, since Linc corrected us) screaming with 128mb of ram (have to check the facts later on that one). Linc is gearing up for another fun filled Linux Link Tech Show. Linc is sporting a comfortable suite and prepp ing his Radio Shack microphone; all of which total under $50.00! Well, I should not say that about his clothes, they are pretty snappy so maybe they cost more.

    Linc and his latpop.

    Take note of Dann's laptop in the lower left-hand corner. That's a fiery PII I 350 with a killer 64 mb ram. You probably cannot see this, but Dann's laptop is running the Ice Window Manager. Now that is a step away from his usualy Window Maker and yo u may be asking yourself "What's the deal here, Dann?" Well, this laptop is use d primarly by Dann's wife. With a roaring 64mb of ram, a window manager like KDE or Gnome, although very well feature, drags performance to sub-optimum levels. So, to keep with a more familiar terrain, Dann chose Ice W indow Manager for his wife and did a nice setup for her, complete with family pictures cycling through the desktop background. Dann could have us ed Window Maker, but he felt that would be too alien for her. Linc would have pressed for XFCE, which he runs on his laptop, but Dann felt that would be equal ly alien.

    These images allow you, gentle viewer, to see how beat up the backyard brawl table really is. The team fears it may fall apart at any minute. It provides little comfort to poor Linc suffered unde r the constant threat of avalanche from the tower piles L
inc waiting for the show to beginof magazines littering the landscape of Dann's office. You cannot see any o f these towers because the mountain chain has been relocated to the periphery and out of the main show area. Needless to say, it is a cramped fit with all three of the Tech Show Crew yacking away.

    Part of Dann's horror movie collection can be seen against the wall in the re d Yaffa bins. Having no where else to go with them for the time being, their presence makes for an interesting obstacl e course when trying to get back to the seat against the wall. A healthy gut suck is required by all, and a tip-toe dance to the side, or else the whole enchilada comes crashing down.

    Finally, those cdr's have nothing to do with the show right now. Maybe in th e future we will release show compilations to LVLUG member and what not. Nor are we trying to endorse Wegman's brand soda (the can is by the 1 7 inch monitor for those without eagle eyes and can alse be found on the previous page); although Wegman's is Dann's favorite grocery store.
