[Olpc-socal] Meeting At Cal Tech Tomorrow (Thurs) Evening

[Braddock]

Hi Caryl,

I would love to see how the internet-in-a-box server works with an XO.  
I have no OLPC laptops to test with.  If you bring one you will be able 
to connect it to our internet-in-a-box hotspot via wifi and I would very 
much like to see the results.

Also, after the SGVLUG meeting some of us go to Burger Continental on 
the corner of California and Lake if any of you wish to join us there 
for informal conversation.
