Received your XO? Let us know!

[Elizabeth Ann West]

Wow, so the fedora-test-list is not for the faint of heart! I have 24
new emails and I could only make heads or tails of about half of them. 

I'm Elizabeth Ann West, a writer who lives just outside Charleston, SC
with my husband and an occasional visit from my adorable 8 year old
stepson. I am fairly new to Linux, about 6 months, but I'm very
enthusiastic. I joined Fedora Docs primarily as an editor, and also
contribute a great deal to my local LUG by planning outreach events
etc. 

Please bear with me if it seems like I ask a ton of novice questions, or
ask you to explain acronyms. In some ways, I might even be a good idea
of the types of issues a teacher or other adult encountering the XO with
a fairly strong technological background will run into. :)

I will purchase my SD card tomorrow while I am out in town. After that,
I look forward to contributing as much as I can, and eventually helping
OLPC with some of the curriculum aspects of the XO.

Always Smiling,
Elizabeth Ann West

Eawest just about everywhere.... :)
