Every so often a group of KWLUGers volunteers to rescue laptops donated to the Computer Recycling project at The Working Centre. For assorted reasons it is not viable for Computer Recycling to spend much time refurbishing these laptops itself, so we sort through them, select ones in reasonable condition, then install Xubuntu on them for resale.

Also this month: we will look at donated routers. We will match them up to power supplies, test them and see whether we can install OpenWRT on them.

Having recovered from his illness, Theo Belaire will deliver his long-awaited Rust presentation.
