computers with Ubuntu for children in Mexico. If anyone is able to help,
please let us know.  I will be there Saturday. Further information is below.

hi,

Sorry for the last minute notice.  A high school student in the Berkeley is
going to be building Linux machines for Stormy Peters' KidsOnComputers.org
project in Mexico.  If anyone is bored tomorrow and would like to come
assemble machines for Linux labs in Mexico, this will be guaranteed to be a
good time.  Plus free pizza!!

As an added bonus, this project will be held at the Zareason shop in
Berkeley, the site where many of us have purchased pre-installed Linux
machines.  Come on over and see the west coast's best Linux-only retailed in
action!

Here is Kory's announcement:

####################

I need help frankensteining 30 desktops so I can send them to Mexico for a
Technology Transfer Program led by Stormy Peters of the GNOME Foundation.
Christian Einfeldt was nice enough to give us the hardware and last weekend
we moved them from SF to my family's computer shop in Berkeley. The project
is for my Eagle Scout. I was going to have a group of friends help that
helped my brother with his Eagle Project, but something came up at the last
minute and now I have only one helper on Saturday and possibly two on Sunday
(all from the Berkeley LUG). Are there any other LUG volunteers in the Bay
area who can help me out?

The first session is at 10 am on Saturday (and other on Sunday) at our shop
at 1647 Hopkins St, Berkeley, 94707. The BART is close & we can pick you up
from there if that makes it easier. We're also getting some great Gioia
pizza <http://gioiapizzeria.com/> and some good stuff from Hopkins
Bakery<http://hopkinsbakery.com/>for lunch. Stay however long you like
and if you can't come at 10, we have
other times that will work too. Let me know if you can help.

Thanks for helping out at the last minute. I really appreciate it.
