FreeGeek Michiana is way short on storage space. FreeGeek in Portland (the Mothership) has intiated a creative solution to their storage problems: the Adopt-a-Computer program. Yes, FreeGeek-Portland asks people in the community to adopt a refurbished computer, a FreekBox in Mothership lingo. Temporary foster care of refurbs eases the burden on storage. When a permanent home for a FreekBox is found, the "foster parents" relinquish their FreekBox. JohnB and I think this is a terrific idea. What do you think? Should we announce the plan and take some refurbs to MLUG for adoption? I sent a draft flyer and contract in plain text in other emails.
