yes we do installs yes we build stuff both yours and ours and others yes we
do drivers a lot of chat  a lot of "who knows how to XXXXXX"
a lot of what is the best distro? and this how I do it stuff...
we will be in room 206-207 10am to 4pm upstairs thu the double doors if we
are busy we skip lunch but do usually go to eat afterward
and there is a elevator we have a PXE installer ISO's usb's VD and cd's
power and networking
you bring computer monitor power cords printer if you want it setup the
list kind of varies by project
we usually have a screw driver. A hdd ok laptop screen is a bit far out
there but at least we can tell you how we did it 5 years ago
