That would be cool, too. I'll be in Christchurch next November. I would
thing, though, that for critical mass, Auckland might be more reasonable.
Now what about VCF-Antarktica? Linux is starting to
become Vintage !
I do have my SBC-6120 with me, as well as some 1802s and a fistfull of
CMOS bits to make at least one Elf. I think, however, that transportation

Linux isn't a curiousity here - I've been using it as my primary OS
since I arrived (on my personal laptop and all the shared desktops
for members of the project) Also, we run the AMANDA neutrino detector
on an assembly of Linux machines, with some PPC VMS boards running
LynxOS, but none of it is Classic hardware/software yet.
