Boston “Installfest” is Saturday, Aug. 23, at MIT

The Boston Linux & Unix Users Group’s 30th Installfest, which we announced in a previous blog as taking place on Sat., Aug. 16, is actually tomorrow, Sat., Aug. 23, at MIT. Volunteers will help users install open source software on their laptops from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at MIT Building E-51, Room 61, 2 Amherst St., Cambridge. Copies of Fedora 9, OpenSuse 11.0, Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 and Debian are available. Bring your computer, monitor, distros to be installed, a power strip and some bucks. Although the volunteer-run service is free, a $25 donation is encouraged
