[Bglug] STARS for refugees?

[EDUWBG]

It’s generally always hardware

Most of the STARS applicants are looking for laptops, as they live in tiny places and do not have the space for a desktop

So having desktops for refugees would work.  We’d need at least 4-5 to get started.  Can someone find an Arabic version of UBUNTU?

Is the waiting list because of lack of HW or labour to setup?
If HW, what is short? I am sitting on some I may be able to give away.
Maybe you have a inventory list to publish that would show the popular and unpopular components.

Totally understandable!  I didn't realize we had a waiting list; I
thought we had caught up.
