Hi,

In case we have some form of "Install Fest" next year, can I suggest
that you keep any old sticks that could possibly be used.

We have about 200 members, if only one in four has a spare would be
enough for a reasonable event.

With the absence of anything specific I thought we (or me) could at
least just copy live OS's to 2 or 4 GB sticks, find a venue and
advertise the event when support for XP finishes.

I thought it would be a good time to think about a supply of sticks even
for just a basic event!

Regards

--
