do we have a community outreach program?

[Brian Cluff]

Rather than us spending $25 for an old computer, it might be a better 
idea to get the thrift shops to stick a sticker that we supply them with 
that they can stick on the computer that lets the person that does 
purchase the computer know that while Windows XP isn't supported 
anymore, there is an entity in town that will not only install something 
new a fresh on their system, but till also train them how to use it.
