Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2008 12:13:35 -0500 From: "Fred Benenson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Free Culture @ NYU's list serv" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [free-culture] Feb 23rd: OLPC Jam Session Free Culture @ NYU, A number of us have purchased OLPCs http://www.laptop.org in the give one get one program http://www.laptopgiving.org/en/index.php and are interested in building on it. So we've booked a room at ITP http://itp.nyu.edu/ and are going to bring our laptops and have fun making new content for the little green machines. We're also going to talk about making the laptop more manageable as a machine to use everyday for adults -- you'll be able to learn how to hack your OLPC and install XFCE (a lightweight GUI), Ubuntu, and take advantage of its unique hardware configurations. This session will also be for those people who are interested in learning more about the OLPC in general, and what they can expect if they're expecting a special delivery. Come with a jump drive, and of course if you have one -- your OLPC. Here's the info for those of you who can't be bothered to read non bolded sentences: NYU OLPC Jam Session Saturday, February 23rd, 2008 12pm-5pm 721 Broadway, 4th Floor, Room 442 New York, New York Please RSVP here (registration required): http://wiki.freeculture.org/NYU_OLPC_Jam_Session If you are not NYU and have not registered by Saturday AM, we will not be able to accommodate you.
