[games_access] reminder: hardware for GDC

Tue Dec 20 10:51:48 EST 2005

Hi,

What's the server address again? I'll upload Drive. Oh, and this time I 
*will* be joining the online meeting (since I have some time off and am not 
stuck in traffic, like usual :)

Talk to you in an hour!

Greets,

Richard
