Beer Meet was a wild success. Wings were consumed, beer was imbibed, and glassware was shattered. <br><br>We also discussed a variety of topics - a sampling of which include: software architecture, web frameworks, storage solutions, wireless mesh networks, the now defunct(?) TC-Wireless list, Linux Distros, TCLUG FLAME WARS, JBOSS, musical instruments we played (with an emphasis on Cello's), how the Minnesota Symphonic Orchestra is regarded relative to other major orchestras, class action lawsuits involving Target and Best Buy, cryptographic tools, computer forensics and criminal investigations, desktop virtualization, the pros and cons and pitfalls of outsourcing, the death(?) of HP-UX, Itanium and Core 7i processors, solid state storage drives, and some other conversations that happened out of my earshot. Perhaps others would be willing to fill in what I missed.<br>
<br>Thanks for organizing, Eric! I'm looking forward to the next one! <br><br>-Rob<br>
