Hello all, I'm very pleased to announce a collaboration with Beehive Startups at the StartFEST in Provo. UTOS will be hosting a Linux Installfest -- but with a special twist. I've reached out to Pete Ashdown and the Electroregeneration Society and have obtained nearly 100 computers. It is our goal to clean, repair and prep these computer for local school kids to take home. If you're interested in participating, please schedule a time when you can come to the UTOS office and help out. We will need people to help prep the computers and we'll need people on Friday to show the children how to use the machines (LXDE Fedora).
