Re: Aklug server

I have a 1MBit connection that I can donate. It's idle all day while
I'm at work, so it won't bother me.

Does the aklug server have a DVD drive? If you want, I can mirror one
(or more) distro and write it to a DVD or two. If not a DVD, then a USB
HDD?

Let me know.

BUt, it kills my connection, and since I work from here, it's just no good. IF anyone else here that frequents the meetings has a faster connection (What's this I hear about a 3MBit GCI connection?) that wouldn't mind giving the aklug server a temporary home, I'm sure we'd all be more than glad to let it be borrowed.
