I agree. If we only had 3 boxes, people would wonder why more people
aren't showing it off if it's so great. If/when we were to have a new
installfest, it would be great if everybody who could would bring their
box... for no other reason than just to show it off. I mean, everybody
does *something* unique with their box, right? So show it off! That's
how we'll convert people -- just by showing that there are large numbers
of people who can do everything and more than they can in Linux than in
Windows.
