1. Edward Middleton will give two mini talks:

   The kuro box mini-presentation will give an introduction to the hardware and look at the differences with a conventional GNU/Linux PC. We will then go through the installation steps for Gentoo linux.

   The greasemonkey mini-presentation will give a basic introduction to greasemonkey looking at the problem it is intended to solve. We will then give a practical example of its use to modify a web page. In the presentation we will cover the use of Platypus, the DOM viewer, the source viewer and the JavaScript debugger.

2. Zev Blut will give a talk about Phidgets. Phidgets, which stands for physical widgets, are a collection of various sensors and servos that are designed for easy integration with computers. Phidgets make it easy for people with a little knowledge of programming and nearly no knowledge in electrical engineering to make all types of interesting physical devices that can interact with you beyond the realm of just your keyboard and monitor.
