There will be a Linux Installation Festival on April 2 from 12pm to 5pm (ish) at the United Nations International School (24-50 FDR Drive New York, NY 10010-4046). You are cordially invited. Please reply to [raulcuza at gmail dot com] if you are interested in coming so I have a sense of the numbers.
WHO
====
This event is open to anyone interested in Linux. Newbies as well as sages are welcomed.
WHAT
=====
I have about 30 old desktops that will be given away to interested families after they have been fixed up and prepared with Linux. Instead of doing this work in a dark office all alone, I would like to do the work with and in the company of fellow Linux enthusiasts.
Things that would be good to bring:
- gigi hubs
- your favorite Linux repositories
- install media (CD, USB)
- DVD burners
- tools (screw driver mostly)
- YOU!
Things UNIS will provide:
- power and power strips
- Internet access
- big open space with a view of the East River
- 30 machines itching to be cleaned up and given a new life for a new family
- Snacks
Lunch can be delivered if people are interested in ordering something.
WHEN
=====
April 2, from 12 PM to 5 PM
WHERE
