Not to derail this *highly* interesting debate on Dell...
Just wanted to share with you all a site I found through the mayor's office
homepage, . I've just browsed around and found a number of
technical volunteering opportunities just in my area of Manhattan, ranging from
computer and internet training for school-age kids to seniors; to
system/network/IT support for a theater group for homeless kids; to web software
development for a group providing safe rides home for women who work late on
Saturday nights. Undoubtedly there are many more opportunities available
throughout the other boroughs.
I'd also like to point anyone interested in formal, consulting-like volunteering
to check out the Taproot Foundation, . Taproot
organizes consulting teams of volunteers to work on well-scoped projects for
deserving & growing NPOs in NYC (and several other cities -- tell your friends).
I volunteer for Taproot, and am currently working through my first project for
them, consulting for CENYC, the Council on the Environment for NYC.

You must be a stupid engineer then, because politcs and technology have been attacted at the hip since the 1st dynasty in Ancient Egypt. I guess you missed that one."
