Hey ppls,
There was a little discusion in the computer discussion thread a while back regarding a lan day.
Usual bf2 and a few other games *suggestions*, maybe a bit of a blast from the past with duke nukem 3d, doom, wolfenstein (ok maybe not that far back) etc.
It 'probably' won't be for some time yet but just for interest sake how many ppls would be keen?
Also.. Who is able to bring a 2/3/4 port router along with them?
I have a little linux box that is able to handle 7 users and I also have a 4port router.
I haven't played with this type of network setup too much so I really don't have much of an idea how it will perform if I hang multiple routers off the linux box's ports.
If push comes to shove I may just shell out for a cheap 16port router such as the following.

They go for $67, if it will do the job for gaming.. I would think so.
Any suggestions/experience here would be helpfull.
An interesting little write up for those interested.
