Lot's of humans (I suspect cuz Uncle Bill) was there making yack-yack. Anyways, I stayed mainly near the *BSD booths. The FBSD and BSDi booths were cranking. The NBSD (at the time I was there, was manned by a lone Netter. While FBSD and BSDi were giving away the latest OS, NetBSD was selling the 1.4.2. The thing I thought was cool at the NBSD boot, was there was a hacked I-Opener sporting NBSD. There was also a pretty cool device at the BSDi booth that was making cards. These puppies looked like Pokee-man cards (sp). The FBSD boot had all the wares that Walnut Creek was selling - FBSD and BSDi were really prepared (I thought). Oh yeah, DeamonNews was there also (Had to nab me a shirt). Overall, It seemed to be a good time, but I had but a short time to be there, so I jetted to where I wanted to be. I met Jim Mock today also, nabbed a few pics, and swiped a few Linux ROMs (for the helluvit). I plan and spending much more time there on Thursday (maybe I can convince NBSD to slip me a free rom) and I'll post all my pics on my website when I'm (Thursday eve). It's unfortunate I won't be able to be at the BOF meeting Wednesday eve. I was a bit disappointed that I didn't catch Jordan there - although, it's rumored he may stop by Wednesday or Thursday... That's about it...
