   That's funny, I was just there the other day (for the first
time, incidentally) and was surprised to see that they had
_no_ Debian CDs, except the set with the little alien on the
cover, which is not just Debian.  Oh no, I'm lying... they
also had the new Debian book (which presumably has a CD inside):
the same one I found on a table at the last meeting, spent a few
minutes looking at, and decided I'd rather not pay the 3800 yen
or so for.

When you say for the "AT", may I presume that this means i386?

   Ouch.  A tad expensive.

   That would be cool.  Except, I won't be able to wait till February :^)
Did you buy it, Joe?  If so, what do you think of the manual?  Worth the
price?  If not, and someone else does buy it, please let us know what
you think....

Thanks,
Dave
