No, it's not a headline; I just like the happy combination of acronyms.
Anyone who'll been looking at /. recently doubtless saw the story about
the Baltimore LUG's efforts at setting up linux networks in schools
using allegedly outdated hardware. If you haven't read the story, check
out http://www.andovernews.com/cgi-bin/news_column.pl?358 .
So is such a thing feasible here? The answer is yes, and the LAID is, I
reckon, the perfect place to launch it*. I'd be interested, and I'm sure
I'm not the only one.
Of course, the biggest problem is storage space for a bunch of machines
until they can be cannibalised and installed, etc. Comments welcome.

*yes, I know LAID is a time, not a place. If Chris De Burgh can say
'light years of time since his mission did start', I can say 'LAID is
the perfect place to launch it.'
