Re: [106attendees] Power strips ?

[Loa Andersson <[e-mail]>]

All,

I counted in Collyer, there are at least 70, if we need to have strips
for 5-6 mayor countries that will be close 400, we have more than 10
meeting rooms that brings the number of strips to 4000.

The example did cost of 20 USD, a total of 80 kUSD, which I think would
have an impact on the meeting fee,
