    Guys/Gals,

    Just wondering if any of you are planning on attending Waterfest this July 15-16th in Jersey?

    I know it's off topic, but it has to do with PROPortable and Asus in a lot of ways. My project car which we're starting to show this month at car and computer shows is going to be featured in the Fourtitude tent at this years Waterfest (VW/Audi) and they're going to be coming on to do a story about the project to date and future upgrades that are made throughout the summer.

    Even though this is a car show and not a computer show..... it's going to be the big premier if you will for the project (which is still evolving). We're using the the project to show off my ideal mobile office and even though for most of the people there, it will all be about the car, I want to invite anyone in the area to come down and see what we're doing computer wise... and maybe even see some new products that I'm going to impliment before their release..

    For you guys down in Virginia (and I know there are a lot of you), I don't have any solid date as of yet, but I was asked to bring it to some sort of gathering up in Rockville in late June I think. So far I've had a lot more interest in the car than in the audio/computer system, but the girls are prettier and wear a lot less at car shows... so I can't turn that down.

    Computer shows are going to be pretty boring and there aren't contests for best booth at those things..... Showing off to the car guys what could be done with computers is honestly a big deal for me if we can get to show people what we can do live... all the better.

    If you mean Rockville MD, I'd be keen to check it out. I'm sure there are many other ASUS fans in this corner of the states that would also be interested in a hot cars and scantilly clad women.

    Honestly, I don't know... but I'm probably going to spend a month at the Cape this summer.. if you want to see what we're going with the car.
