Wow! You have to be pretty old to have ever even heard of an Osborne 1! A revolution in portable computing -- a 30 lb suitcase! :) I knew Adam Osborne slightly, he was a member of the Berkeley Amnesty International chapter for a while. He became frustrated because Amnesty decision-making moves so slowly -- not nimble and adventurous like innovative entrepreneurial types like Adam. It should be an interesting evening, sorry I can't make it. cheers Hilary --- Original Message --- Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2023 01:18:39 -0700 From: Paige P <pgeplan(a)gmail.com> Subject: [sudo-discuss] old, old computer donation today To: SudoRoom <sudo-discuss(a)sudoroom.org> Hey everyone, Heads up that a donation of really old computers came today. We have good contact with owner and he is coming by tomorrow. I am leaving it out on the main table for the hw hacking crowd to check out, but I will be in tomorrow to move as required for hacking workspace needs. But should be fun to talk with the donor about all this gear tomorrow night. His name is Tom and he said he'd come by at 7 and is happy to take back whatever we dont want. So we should figure out what we want now. Or later and deal with it some time soon along with all are other ewaste (another discussion...). The big one todays crowd was excited about was the Osborne 1. But the other stuff seems sellable but depends on if we can get it turning on. Paige --- Hilary Naylor, Ph.D. www.a2zed.us Oakland CA
