Well Gamers,
It's time to get ready for an awesome LAN Party!
We've received swag and prizes from IZ3D, Microsoft, ThermalTake, CoolIT, Crucial, DustOff, Monster and most importantly Intel has sent over some rocking processors and motherboards!
While we will make every attempt to keep all equipment in the room secure, do be aware that there is little we can do to prevent ipods, portable game consoles, cd's, big wads of cash, and other small items from walking off. We strongly suggest you keep such items out of plain view and use some common sense when it comes to your own security.
If you're coming with a laptop, we strongly recommend you invest in a laptop lock particularly if you plan on leaving your laptop unaccompanied at any point.
As we've mentioned previously, we have a limited amount of items for sale that will help you out in case you forget something critical.
Network Cables, laptop locks (buy or rent), power cords, mice....
Check out the LPANE Store at

One of our junior staff members created a printable checklist to help ease your worries about forgetting something,
