I was going to bring a laptop cable lock, but past that, I don't know that 
there's any.  If you wanted to bring your computer, certainly the booth 
will be manned all day.  If you want to leave it overnight, then lets you 
and I brainstorm offline on how to lock it up.  I'm sure they have 
facitilties there to lock things up, too.

Jerry, that starts me thinking though: What furniture will we have in the 
booth?  Are we going to have at least a table and two or more chairs, or 
do we just get an empty box?  If we need to bring that stuff, there's no 
way I can carry more than I already plan to carry in.

I have not heard yet whether we are going to have internet access or not.
