Arizona Cooperative Power and O'Reilly donated enough copies of
Programming Embedded Systems that we were able to
give a copy out to everyone! Everybody also got a Hitachi
swiss army knife, a tin of mints, and an O'Reilly coupon!

We dig into the dozen pizzas and 70 sodas our speaker bought
for us!
... And spend a while eating and socializing before the talk.
Yum!
For making the closest guess as to how many Linux distributions
exist today (about 250), this fellow won a copy of Heretic II,
compliments of LUGOD.
We continue club business.
Marianne Waage - one of many who sneak some more pizza.
John Alden points out that Ikea in Emeryville has adorable plush penguins
for only $1.00!
We prepare to raffle!
First up - a Hitachi tote-bag!
Ensuring the randomness of the raffle (Rhonda won the tote-bag)
Next - a copy of Programming Linux Games
Pete Salzman holding up the next raffle item: A copy of
Running Linux, donated by ACP and O'Reilly.
Winner!
We started raffling off Hitachi T-shirts...
...(H8 shirts, to be exact)...
...But confusion led to raw, unbridled give-aways.
Rob Wehrli, beginning his talk. (Did we mention he's from Hawaii?)
Full from pizza, but still awake!
Brian Lavender of SacLUG volunteered to switch slides.
More Rob Wehrli.
An embedded kit makes a good example.
