Yes, the next installfests are 2/27 at UAT and then 3/20 over in the
Escalante Community Center, 2150 East Orange St, Tempe.  Too bad she lives
so far from Apache Junction or I would be happy to do it for her.

WRT Mark's idea, she can't use a live CD with a netbook unless she has an
external (USB) optical drive.  OTOH, it would be possible to make her a live
USB stick of UNR but you would have then instruct her how to boot from that
either by setting boot order in BIOS (not likely) or pressing a key (usually
F12) on startup for a boot menu.
