If he can help awesome, the more the merrier :).  I'm still kinda new at
this stuff...

Yes I have agreed to help with this, but have no materials, so if we can
arrange any materials for this that would be cool.
EventBox, EEEPC / MiniPC laptop type stuff?? Would really like to show one
of those off with Fedora...
Larry you mentioned speaking with Karsten (?) about getting some stuff?
All I have right now is my work issue regular laptop (15") running Fedora.

We could also use some help from marketing.  Larry you ran this thing in
Felton, CA, what did you do for marketing then?
That isn't really my area of expertise.

You or David should probably see about doing some press releases, I'll see
what I can do as well.
There is OSU, and there is also Portland State nearby, though I have no real
contacts yet at either one.

Yes Corvallis to Portland is roughly 1.5-2 hour trip depending on traffic.
