Ok. I'll bite. though between Rosh Hashana and Yum Kippur the malls aren't

Dizingoff in the bottom (I felt like I was comming out of a tomb when I

The answer is ofcourse. Science and Engineering is most welcome, command
are redirected to M$ instaparty.

btw, we had tshirts here (THANKS INTEL). and you can print 30 installer
name tags and 10 demonstartors, at most it'll be kept for the next one :)
