[sudo-discuss] Tablet security

[Ed Biow]

This is Ed (Ginormous is my preferred adjective, btw, Jake). I can come 
over and set you guys up with a low-powered Linux computer any time you 
like (within reason, mourning is an aptly named time of day).

If you used a cloud-based system (like Google Docs) for your inventory 
it won't matter if the computer is ripped off (which is very unlikely), 
your data will be safe & I can replace the machine, and if your data is 
stored locally I can set the machine up to back up your data to the 
sudoroom server.

My contact info is in my sig below, give me a call.  I  believe my first 
(and only) wife is going to drop me off at the Omni for a few hours 
Thursday afternoon (I'm a crummy driver and she has clients in that 
area) so I can do maintenance on the public computers, so give me a 
heads up and I can schlep over some hardware.
