The Installfest last Saturday was one of the very best in TCLUG history, in my opinion. The facility and parking are clearly the best of all, so some haven't been bad. Their server had every distro anybody asked for, and their internet pipe is one of the biggest or best in the Twin Cities. Brian and others did an excellent job of helping, and it was nice that some young family members could attend and have plenty of extra romping space. The TIES site has first class spaces for meetings and presentations also. Looked like more than 3 concurrent and fully supported sessions could easily be supported with separate glass-walled rooms each with projectors, pipes, and power. I look forward to more meetings and sessions at TIES. Many thanks to Brian and crew and TIES for letting us use the space !!
