I have a loan Acer Aspire One netbook here running Linpus (based on Fedora Core). I should still have it by then. I am happy for my father to pick this up and demonstrate at SFD. Unfortunately I will be in the UK at the time. If businesses ask where it can be obtained I would like Datacom mentioned, otherwise they are able to buy from a chain store for around $600.

Bryce is a little worried that at the moment we only have three or four people involved in SFD who really grok Free/OSS software and have a broad knowledge of what's available in various areas. So my first request is that some of the less active members and past members who are able to confidently talk to the public about Free and Open Source software do come along on SFD and give us a hand. RSVP so I know who's coming and don't have to stress about this.
Apart from a poster(s)/banner for the library, I don't recollect seeing any other mention of SFD activities for Hamilton. I presume you are talking of a manned display at the library and the opportunity to talk with passing members of the public - in dulcet tones, of course! I'm happy to come along and talk with people.
