We're in the Marriot, not a crack house. And it's NYC, not Sao Paolo. I think my friend Dave needs to actually spend some time in New York City. :). Don't buy any bridges. And if you're driving, stay off the cross Bronx Expresseway. It's moidah during rush hour. -M< ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul Wall <pauldotwall@gmail.com> To: Joe Maimon <jmaimon@ttec.com> Cc: nanog@nanog.org <nanog@nanog.org> Sent: Thu May 22 18:07:48 2008 Subject: Re: Hauling gear around a NANOG meeting I've not been to the conference myself, but I hear laptop and charger is a good plan. Following the advice of our host, David Diaz (Telx), care should be exercised to make sure your laptop bag does not have the text "LAPTOP" printed on it, as that would make it a target for thieves. Additionally, don't wear white iPod earbuds, as that will likely lead to you getting mugged on the subway, or zapped by lightning in Central Park.

Looking for some advice for a first-timer.
What are your recommendation regarding gear?
- laptop and charger only
- laptop with small bag
- the whole normal kit&caboodle, wheeled backpack thing
Thanks,
Joe
