[balug-admin] Gumstix for March ( Fwd: request for speaker at balug)

Greetings,

I haven't been to a BALUG meeting in nearly a year and am VERY much  
looking forward to a gumstix talk!

For what its worth, it would also be cool to see someone talk about  
hardware hacking in general with Arduino wiring/processing specifically.

Embedded linux is also a win.

Anyone in the group that could do that?
