  Linux in Schools: Help Yourself by Helping the Underdog

   Schools and Linux should really fit together hand-in-hand. Schools need
   robust, low cost infrastructure, and the Linux community needs more
   widespread adoption to avoid marginalization on the desktop. Schools offer
   the potential to become channels for distribution and socialization for
   Linux.

  Christian Einfeldt

   Einfeldt is a community organizer who has worked for more than 5 years to
   bring Linux to two local public schools, and will draw on this experience
   to talk about what schools need to go further with Linux, and how schools
   can help create greater mindshare for Linux.

RSVP

  Although it is not required, we like to have an idea of how many
  people to expect, so if possible please email rsvp at penlug.org if you
  are planning to attend.

  Traffic on 101 can be pretty bad in the evening, so we encourage you
  to check traffic conditions before driving by dialing 5-1-1 on your
  phone or visiting www.511.org, and if possible to take public transit
  (best bet: bicycle via Caltrain) or carpool to this meeting.
