But at least one computer company, [System76](https://system76.com/), builds some of its machines here in Colorado. Its 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 and have lunch with some employees. Lunch is provided. + +This event is open to all members of the CMCI community.
