There is an interesting article in the Santa Fe New Mexican today.

The Santa Fe Civic Housing Authority will receive $176,400 from the 
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to increase Internet and computer 
access at a new community center in the Hopewell neighborhood.

The yet-to-be-named center on Espinacitas Street, off St. Michael's 
Drive, is still under construction and is expected to open by the middle 
of next month, said Ed Romero, housing authority director.

...

"They're old and they crash and they crash," Santiago said of the 
center's current computers. "So this will be fantastic."


Sounds like they could use some GNU/Linux computers. I wonder what they 
are planning.
