[TriLUG] Installfest and big monitors

It seems like I read that handcarts will be available... is this correct?  I
was going to bring a smaller monitor (my main is a 21", and one person alone
cannot carry it!) but, for the X configuration, it might be best to bring
it...

Thanks, Tom. I'll bring it. I'm just reluctant because I once had an IBM
monitor go bad simply from putting it in an automobile and driving some
distance on rough roads. And if you remember how IBM used to put their own
screws in their monitors you will know that it was impossible to get anyone
to fix them except Big Blue and their service cost would pay for a new
monitor!! I'm assuming I'll have some help with unloading. See you tomorrow
if I can get around the Fair traffic.---Al Johnson.
