@gregdosh @pmbrandvold been on very similar wavelength as you both. Been thinking of hosting some Linux install parties at local libraries or parks with shelters, power outlets, and wifi which there are at least a few solid options.
How to promote and get folks to show up is a hurdle I don't have much idea about, but I have found there is no shortage of old spare laptops people have sitting on shelves or whatever that tend to run Linux perfectly well.

@aeischeid @pmbrandvold I'm not great at marketing myself, but I wonder if there are other Minneapolis groups or networks we could tap into to help/advertise/get-the-word out. First to mind for me was something like @TwinCitiesGeek if we can figure out a place/time and probably a small little flyer/promo maybe?
