/*This month: Introduction to Computer Hardware - Demystifying the Box*/

Spartacus books, 7pm-9:30pm
2nd floor, 319 West Hastings
All are welcome! Beginners ok! Fully accessible, bike parking upstairs. 
Free or by donation.

*Topics covered:*
How to work with Electronics ~ Basic computer Anatomy ~ POST (Power On 
Self Test) ~ How to access computers ~ If buying, questions you should 
ask ~ If receiving, things you should look for ~

 
The hardware workshop will run about an hour.

Afterward, there will be a Linux Clinic where we assist folks who have 
Linux issues. If you want to see what Linux is all about, you're welcome 
to stay! If you are already running a distribution of Linux, you might 
consider bringing your box down, so we can work together to solve your 
difficulties. Please drop us a line if you can, outlining your issues.

Folks who attended the presentation are welcome to stick around to 
explore hardware topics further, or to ask other questions.
