And quite a busy meet today it was too!

Yep,  it was good to see old / new faces at the meeting i need to update
the website for next month.

I am just burning 2 copies of Linux mint 8.

Hm. And next time I'll bring a copy of Debian Lenny and show you how it should be done ;-)

Gordon

Shouldn't we be really hard core and building from source, heck, no...

Well, if you want to do that, then there's Gentoo ... Never had time to get into that one though.

printing out a hard copy of the source on punch tape and typing it back in and compiling it by hand?

Nah, just toggle the switches on your PDP11...

Anyway... I enjoyed the brief conversation about C/Java/Cobol and overclocking a BBC Micro. :-)

6502 - the best :)

So here's a chanllenge - I made this many (many!) years back, get Linux to run on it :)
