[nmglug] programming course this coming weekend - any help and/or laptops?

[Mark Galassi]

Dear nmglugers,

This weekend I'm teaching my "serious programming for kids" course
again.  This is a course where the kids have to bring an old 
laptop and
we start by having them install a GNU/Linux distribution.

I wonder if the nmglug community could help me with some things:

* Making sure the network at Warehouse 21 is OK.  This is both for 
  my
  Thursday 6:15pm class upstairs, and for my weekend class 
  downstairs.

* Anyone want to come and assist with the installfest on Saturday 
  July 8
  morning at 10am?  If there is one nmgluger that really helps.

* Does anyone have old laptops?  The kids are supposed to pester 
  their
  grandparents for old laptops, but I like to keep a batch of 
  loaners
  available in case kids cannot find them.  Anything with 2gig or 
  more
  is good.
