Very nice story. FreeGeek has been a fixture here in Portland for many years doing great work in the community, promoting open-source long before gaining wide acceptance enjoyed today. FreeGeek sells stuff to the general public--I have several laptops I bought there for my business. A real asset is the steady volume of old components on hand, things like floppy disk and optical drives, controllers, IDE and SCSI cables, the kinds of items that are needed to keep equipment running, or necessary for reading old archives. I keep thinking, one of these days, when I have the time, I'll volunteer at the Geek. I anticipate it will be a very rewarding experience.
