I like the idea, and I'd definitely attend and participate! I'm not sure how much fun it would be for some of the fuddy-duddies in the group, though. ;-) Mind you, if the game(s) have an "observer" mode (BZflag is one that has this), we could throw that on the projector and make it more of a show.<div>

Mike's Warzone 2100 demo offer gave me an idea...<br>
<br>
Has there ever been a MUUG game night? Perhaps we could vote on 1 or 2 favorite open source games & use one of the meetings (Xmas Party) as a LAN party? We could do the round-table first & then LAN party for any who wanted to stay.<br>
<br>
Just an idea.<br>

If anyone wants, I can talk about a trio of commands. "cd", "pushd",<br>
and "popd". I can also give the standard lecture of how directories are<br>
created/removed/arranged.<br>
<br>
At a later date I can give a short demo of a cross-platform game called<br>
Warzone 2100. I can even demo a GameBoy emulator (I used to run a game<br>
oriented BBS with a friend and I guess it's still an area I pay a little<br>
attention to). An admitted departure from the system admin oriented<br>
presentations, but a break every now and then couldn't hurt. ;-)<br>
<br>
Later<br>
Mike<br>
