Computer Reconditioning

[Michael Selva]

Ben -

I have been doing exactly what you are describing at my school.  We  
had a pile of old machines in the basement which had been deemed too  
slow or too old to run Windows XP, but now that we've switched to  
Linux, I have found that most of them can be given a new lease on  
life by installing Ubuntu.  I may wind up with one or two extras, and  
I would love to share the wealth with other schools, libraries,  
community groups, etc.

Please call me at the number below, or email to ms at ssaes.org, and we  
can discuss this further.

P.S.  Do you have any extra Ubuntu CDs that I can distribute at an  
upcoming public event?
