Lets have 26 minutes of success in addition to our speaker.  Most of it runs
in the background anyway.  The first 10 minutes going through setup wizard.
Then we have the talk.  Followed by a follow up "Ta Da".  Then in July we'll
do the backup (that's a pretty important thing to do,) and so on.  Kinda
like the Tool Tip thing.  Or maybe we do each time there is a new release.
Fedora 7 is coming out ready for Junes meeting...
