I'm out of town until tomorrow night, so I haven't been focused on this.
It is my number one priority when I get back.

I'm hoping I may have a (at least partially) working NetBSD kernel on a
Zaurus, for one thing. 

I suppose a quad CPU sparc10 wouldn't be a bad thing (with sparc MP
recently 'completed').

It's probably worth me bringing a Shark (DNARD), due to cool
form-factor, fanless, and the original Oracle project which intended to
use NetBSD.

Similarly, we could show a NetWinder running NetBSD. Recognizable for
the Ottawa crowd...

Another option would be some Compact-PCI boards (Ultrasparc and/or x86)
for the industrial computing inclined.

Yet another possibility are some MIPS32 evaluation boards I'll be
working on next week.

While I'm there, I'll have my x86 laptop too - always good to show off
the stability of NetBSD hot-swap, cardbus and USB support.

Care to set a space limit? ;-)
