Didn't have a camera, but several did take pics at our booth. ke4nt1 was there and did take pics. I hope he will post them or send them along to me and I will.
Overall LinuxWorld was very server oriented and in fact, shared the convention center with NGDC. Next Generation Data Center. Liitle desktop stuff. The ".org" pavillion was the most interesting part for me. I got a hands on with a OLPC. Was not impressed with it both look and feel hardware and UI. I also got to see the Classmate laptop and even booted DSL on it! The Classmate has a wide screen, still DSL defaults looked good. DSL ran great on its 900Mhz /256MB. Also, booted DSL on a Fijisu tablet PC, expensive, $2000, but still very nice. I think some vendor's did not like it that John and I were trying DSL on their new hardware. Some chased us away. Still it was fun to see DSL run these new machines. Of course, we could only see the booted DSL desktop. We could not test evey feature. Wish the eee pc701 was there, but seems like the Classmate is similiar in specs.
