[Edward Cherlin]

Can anybody with an XO make it to this workshop in Kenya?

We have several sets of PowerPoint/OpenOffice Impress slides that you can
use. See Presentations and Demonstrations on the laptop Wiki. You can run
the Live CD on a laptop with a video output, or get the XO screen on your
computer through several methods, also on the Wiki.
