All Kill3r February 1, 2004 Share All Kill3r Member February 1, 2004 never been to a lan either but i would plan to bring everything you need to get your pc up and running assuming the only thing that is provided is a plug for your power strip. Bringing backup cd's cant hurt either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[VI]ROosTEr February 2, 2004 Share [VI]ROosTEr Member February 2, 2004 (edited) Will UPS be allowed? The only reason I ask is that LanWar does not allow them, and that is all I have. Edited February 2, 2004 by [VI]ROosTEr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty February 2, 2004 Share Fatty GC Founder February 2, 2004 UPSeses draw power, which would be the reason, I'm guessing? No need to redo this topic....lemme find it. Ok, here it is. Changes: Snack is definitely still a required item, however I believe FF should be able to pick up the large meals. I have to do some more figuring.
