[OLPC-Chicago] Chicago Office Needs...

[Mark Romz]

Hi All!
I'm looking forward to start meeting the local Chicago olpc community, well
at least as much as my busy schedule will allow... I do have some resources
that this group may find useful. :)

Meetings in the city:
If anyone is interested in meeting on a regular semi-regular basis in the
actual city, we could use my office. It's located in River North with easy
access from public transportation (2 blocks from merchandise mart) or decent
access to parking meters during non-work hours. We have a large conference
room that could comfortably fit a dozen people. Timing is flexible as long
as it's on weekdays after 6pm or weekends.

School Server:
I have a couple PCs that I am decommissioning. Perhaps one of these could be
used as a school server? (Sorry I haven't had time to review the required
specs on the wiki). If the hardware is compatible and someone is willing to
perform the configuration, you're welcome to it. If we keep it in my office,
I could put it on the WAN (low priority bandwidth, but I'm assuming that it
does not need much?)

My day job keeps me extremely busy, so any help logistically to make these
resources available would be greatly appreciated.

Mark
