Thanks everyone who donated boards to @socallinuxexpo.bsky.social!!

Today is the day we get to give them away!

I think my final count was 52 ❤️

“We have over 40 single board computers (e.g. Raspberry Pi) that were donated by the community to give away for the students who participate in the event.”
