[kwlug-disc] Raspberry Pi

[jvj at golden.net]

 Hi Craig

 I am gathering interest at KWARTZLB and I think that we could put your 
 5 pcs up to 10 plus.

 Please bear in mind that at least one of your 5 (mine) is part of the 
 KWARTZLAB count.

 On Monday I will visit DIYode in Guelph, a sister makerspace of 
 KWARTZLAB, to see if there are any synergies there. I am told that 
 DIYode has an arrangement to supply the UG with Raspi for the UG's 
 CompSci programs. Further, I am told that DIYode buys from Newark in 
 quantities in the 100s.

 I will keep KWLUG and KWARTLAB apprised.

 Regards
 JohnJ
