[ale] MicroCenter (was Yet ANOTHER reasone to love Linux)

[Lightner, Jeff]

The flyer I got didn't say anything about a webinar.   It talked about a
"build your own" event but didn't seem to require you to do that.  It
explicitly stated no purchase is necessary (but does say quantities are
limited of course).

It was the "Yonkers" bit that got me.
