Seeking more information

Hi Scott

Where are you in Guatemala? I was there a few years ago, in
Xela, and
did some setup of old PC's with Linux, as well as
experimenting with
LTSP. My amigo, Rosendo, is doing similar stuff in Todos
Santos, I
have CC'd him on this message, maybe you want to get in
touch, I'm
sure he would love to hear from you.
