**Visit a company that designs and builds open-source computers in Colorado**

September 27, 2019   
12 p.m. - 2 p.m.   
(Those carpooling meet at the Armory parking lot at 11 a.m.)

Most of the computers we use were built far away, often under questionable conditions. But at least one computer company, [System76](https://system76.com/), builds some of its machines here in Colorado. These computers are open hardware and run the company's own Linux-based, open-source operating system. On this field trip, we'll take a tour of the System76 facility and have lunch with employees.

This event is open to all members of the CMCI community. [RSVP and sign up to carpool here](https://etherpad.net/p/medlab-system76).
