God I miss this! I used to take it for granted.
Now, I've been living in LA for 5 years, and there is nothing remotely like
it out here! Here, you pay a cover fee to go into a "swap meet" (quotes
because "swap meet" and "cover charge" just don't belong together in my
vocabulary, but that's what they call them). Unfortunately, I think a good
part of the country is more like LA than Dallas in that respect.
You *must* attend the 1st Sat sometime, it's like a techie right-of-passage
in DFW. ;-D And remember, real techies show up at midnight on Friday
(sometimes even earlier).
Needless to say, bargain basement surplus/used computers and Linux make a
good mix. I often prefer older machines because I figure if it's been around
for three or four years there's probably a driver for it by now.
Oh and thanks for bringing up the DSL issue -- I'm in the same boat, and
appreciate all the information!
Cheers,
Terry
