Well whatever happens, I think I will be available to participate.
   
  I'm very near IMSA  I don't know if that matters.

Jeffrey,

Could you describe what you're trying to get help with a little more, so 
the people here can see if they have the expertise/time/ability to help you?

Thanks,

-Mel

PS: Chicago folks, we should have another get-together sometime soon - 
perhaps an open-support session where people can give and get help with 
their projects and laptops. Will send separate thread.

Sure. I know nothing about Linux. I am a mediocre user of Windows and Mac at
best. I would like the XO to do some basic things for me:
-Play media from an SD card
-Learn how to install programs that I am reading about to make the XO a
little easier to use (for example - Opera)
-If possible, would love to be able to use a program like GOTOMTPC to
connect to my home PC

Thanks, JAS

There will be an informal meetup at Moraine Valley Community College this Saturday, February 16 at 11:00 a.m. I will be introducing a few parents and their kids to the XO that morning. Everyone is welcome to drop by to mesh with us! I'll be happy to give an overview of OLPC and the XO and I will also attempt to answer any questions.

Maps and Directions
===================
The meeting will be held in T921A in the Center for Contemporary Technology (T Building) at MVCC in southwest suburban Palos Hills, IL.

Directions to the MVCC campus can be found at http://www.morainevalley.edu/gen_info/directions.htm
