prefer a nice place to a cheap place.

place in comparison...)


Well I did suggest Beirut, that place rocks...

But that didn't go down well.

Maybe the UK/US idea is the way to go.

Actually, in a way, to be honest, the cool place to go would be Uppsala,
Sweden, where HECnet started, and there is way much cool hardware to
fool around with.

There are PDP-11/70 machines, VAX-8650s, VAX-7000/720, DEC-2060, PDP-
8, PDP-12, as well as plenty of small stuff...

Now *that* is tempting!


We could probably host activities using the University locales, and have
other fun stuff going on as well.
