RE: 802 LCD Projector Shortfall
Jim, The requests break out as follows on Tues, Wed, Thurs :
* 802.1 1
* 802.3 5
* 802.11 5
* 802.15 3
* 802.16 5
* RPR-ECSG 1
==
Total: 20
With 2 more projectors (total=16) 802.3, 802.11, 802.15, and 802.16
would each be one short and timesharing might be workable.
Otherwise we will have some very unhappy campers. :-(
Thanx, Buzz
