Thanks, Robert.  I'm glad you took the time to watch.  Booting a
thin-client on television and can certainly challenge one's ability to
explain why the scrolling, DOS-like text is a *good* thing.

Yes.  Note to self.  Power switches are meant to be on.  :-)

Yes.  Warren Togami had a class with Brian Chee, and from there the gaps
left by Redhat's numbered releases were quickly filled by the ambition
of the Fedora project.

Red Hat sent a Fedora and a Letter to UH in recognition of the project
that changed their release strategy.  Brian Chee brought them to
TPOSSCON this year so that Robin 'roblimo' Miller could take a
photograph to an upcoming meeting with the letter's writer, Matthew
Szulick.  Pictures are here
