#ubuntu101 wrap up

All in all #ubuntu101 was a success! Several people showed up with laptops. We got off to a slow start due to a stubborn IBM Thinkpad that did not want to boot from USB, which we fixed by running one of the nice CDs that I had ordered from the Ubuntu shop. Due to unknown causes the main NoDa wireless network would not connect to the internet so we all ended up neighbor-netting off of a dlink router. Thanks to whomever left it open!

I have several Ubuntu CDs and Ubuntu sticker sheets still up for grabs, let me know if you want some!

The wonderful owner of Dolce Vita Wines, Irma Wolfe, took excellent care of us and provided us with a projector along with space for the workshop.

Thank you to @flakitru, @justinholtweb, @subtlegusto, @93octane, @vinnie, @benmarvin, @beccaomgz, and @unanything for coming!
