[clug] Thursday: OLPC discussion + a talk

[Lana Brindley]

A colleague of mine got one at linux.conf.au this year as a giveaway to
devs.
Unfortunately the only reason I have for wanting one is for my daughter.
Would
be happy to participate in the give one/get one scheme, but have been told
that
it is now only available in the US and Canada (or for purchase with a US
credit
card, anyway).

*sigh*

I may just have to content myself with an eee pc. What is xandros like as an
OS?

Cheers,
Lana

There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what
the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be
replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another
theory which states that this has already happened.
