Make a checklist
of things you want to bring a day or two before
joining
our events. Double check the list. It sucks when you forget a
power cable
and no one has a spare.

least a 1.5Ghz)

Extension cord
15
foot Ethernet
Cable
Headphones
(No
speakers please!)
Software
(game
CD needed - We should have the

You should try to
have as much of the software installed. Many times a
player loads a game only to find the lanparty has moved to another.
Network Card
10/100 BASE-T plus drivers
Food
(bring your
own food if you want, but there's a
lot in
the area)
If you bring
a PC to a lanparty, please make sure
that it
works
with DHCP
to grab an address as it boots up.
On Windows XP thats
