How about a NON-INTEL System fest.  I have heard several members on the list say they have sparcs of some sort.  I think it would be educational if everyone was to bring their NON-INTEL based systems (sparc, sgi, rs6000, hp pa-risc, alpha, nintendo, palm, etc) to a meeting and show them off.  Plus any members that are having trouble could get help with their.  

I have an SGI that I would like to put Linux on (maybe) and an Ultra II that I can install Linux on to show off.
