[Bassetlug] LUG meeting reminder

[Daniel White]

Hi Mark,

I'm hoping to be able to come down again this time.

I'd be interested in seeing if we can get my Compaq Presario V6000 
laptop to Dual Boot and work without too much hassle. Hopefully, Vista 
won't throw too much of a wobbly!

I had a play with IPCop since our last meeting but failed miserably in 
trying to get it working. That's probably because I was trying to get it 
to talk nicely to my Orange Livebox though, which doesn't seem to want 
to play nicely with anything!

Cheers,
Daniel
