RE: Installfest, last Saturday of the month

Arrgh, I am starting to volunteer somewhere else, and
the 'day' is Saturday's 10am - 2pm. Arrgh. Oh, well.
Since I am 'new', skipping the first second Saturday I
am at it isn't kosher on anything you do. Hopefully,
this will be fruitful and enjoyable for me. This is
'manning' an M$ ExPee community computer lab. It is a
'new' day for it, will see how it goes. Unfortunately,
I am NOT allowed to run Linux!! Arrrrrrgh! Oh, well.

Once I get my 'foot in the door' so to speak, I will
see if I can haul in a box/keyboard/moose and use one
of their monitors for a demo..without connecting to
the 'outside' world. Hum, I do have ability to get the
15 inch there by trike.. hum. Maybe able to demo and
etc. I WILL mention to everyone that shows..hopefully
some will!! That you are having an installfest and
explain to any interested that IF they have enough
space on the home puter if they have one, then they
can dual boot and how that works. And naturally, that
you are doing free installs!!! Yes, the 'gift' system,
with 15" monitor and k6-2 333 could survive the ride
there and back, hum.

So, I guess, at least for the first 'last Saturday', I
will not be there!!

Wish I could be both places at once.

accommodation on our public roads,
just as does every other user.

Nothing more is expected.

Nothing less is acceptable!
