I personally would like to participate in the Kiosk workshop/prezzie. I might be able to offer my help from what I learned or perhaps act as a guninea pig while Arron talked....all in all thanks for the help that eveyone offered. i am about 98% where I want to be for the kiosk machine...typical I guess for Linux.
