Caryl;

The Pictures are great!

I have been fighting Windows 7 and liveusb-creator on my new acer aspire one net-book. I have always used it in fedora linux before where it is dead simple to use....

Now I understand your frustrations a little better.

Congratulations and thanks.

Hi All,
Today was "showtime" for SoaS at the LAUSD InfoTech and Parent Summit at the 
Los Angeles Convention center. This year's event was sponsored by Target as one of their 
community involvement projects. Everything was free... even parking and a great lunch!  
They said there were about 4000 people there including kids.

We had a lot of parents and teachers stop by and ask about getting XOs for 
their schools and about SoaS.  I gave them a special handout with links to lots 
of info. Some also signed up for the olpc-SoCal mailing list. Their names will 
be added sometime next week.

You can see some photos of the event here. I wish I had had time to take more 
(and to see the other booths).

We showed SoaS Blueberry running on the eeePC and MacBook (with a boot helper 
cd) and it worked fine.  This was a non-persistant version.  A couple of 
teachers who stopped by were very interested in trying it and may help us work 
on the Grannies Guide. I will keep working on it myself in the next couple of 
weeks.

Thanks again to all of you who helped me get the project this far!  Hopefully 
by CUELA's Tech Fair in November we will be ready for a hands-on make and take 
workshop... BYOLT and usb, take home SoaS ready to go!
