<br>
In the past the Open Source lab has been a 40 (IIRC) station LTSP lab<br>
that Steve Hargadon provides, so setup only needs to happen on the<br>
server. This might not work with Sugar, but it's worked fine for me -<br>
people have been able to follow along with my Python examples, or not,<br>
as they choose.<br>

Just so you know the layout, the past couple of years the room has held<br>
around 100, with the LTSP laptops up front and more conventional lecture<br>
seating in the rear. So if the room is even close to full, the group is<br>
too big (and one hour too short) to do a lot of serious tutorial work,<br>
and there are machines for only about half of them. Still, you can walk<br>
through examples, or give them a chance to try some basic procedures,<br>
etc. (as long as you get any software installed on the server beforehand).<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
