ByteWorks just sent home its second class of students with
refurbished machines with Debian and we already have the next batch
ready to go (mostly.) That means we now have a bit of free time to
evaluate other distros. So, this Saturday, July 22nd, is the day.
If you have a favorite distro and you think it would be a good fit
for kids in the 9-13 year age range, then please do come down and
show it off at around 1pm. We'd love to see it.
Hope to see you there.
Regards,
