I posted my setup in the 'project' forum. Since none of you guys bothered to give me my props, I'm not going to make the meet on Friday!

shouldn't be a problem, we'll be the dorky guys standing around our cars with computers in them. probably in the back of the parking lot.
I just finished puting everything back in my car, i'm typing this from the garage. really looking forward to this meet.

Who ever come first just find a spot far from the entrance and "think" that no one (fry customers) will park there. That way we are the only "crazy" people standing there. That is much better for other peps to find.

Dangit! My car is having mechanical difficulties (after my Opus ran down the battery the other day, I jumped it today and it still doesn't turn over) so I might show up, computerless, on my motorcycle.

For those of you who's not on the list, if you want to go to the meet, just show up. This is not an invitation only meet. It is open to anyone, even if you dont have a system up and running. You can still go and ask questions about your own setup.

Man the traffic is freaking bad. I had to make a U turn after 2 hrs with only 1/3 distance (18 miles). If I continue, by the time I get there, it probably 10PM. That is suck.
Well next time have it on Sat. Probably less traffic than Friday.

Thanks to everyone that showed up at the meet. I had a good time meeting you all and checking out your projects. There's a lot of nice work being done around here!
@cproaudio, your ride is even more 1337 in person than it appears in your posts. You win the "max pimpage ride" award! I can't believe you came all the way from btown for the meet. Crazy dude!
