If at all possible, I would want to do it. The room does have Internet, meaning ethernet, I believe. So, I could stream over my laptop whilst we blow away Windows and install Linux on the system there, or something like that. I don't know about what experience leve I will have. I imagine your estimation is correct, mostly AT and Windows familiarity. jwantz@babel.hpcc.noaa.gov writes: > From: jwantz@babel.hpcc.noaa.gov > > Hi Janina, > Is your audience going to be experienced linux users?
