| be Mercer County, but I hope to expand statewide eventually.

| refurbishment and installation of Ubuntu on the donated equipment,
| and even training users and organizations. I hope the LoCo will be
| a good resource for us.

FWIW, the Ubuntu PA LoCo's NTR project team have been doing just this,
and have a LOT of helpful input, i'm sure.

Bill Gates is to hacking as Sid Vicious was to the Sex Pistols: no
talent, everyone hates him, and he's just in it for the fame and money.
