[Noisebridge-discuss] Noisebridge Laser Laptop doesn't power on

[John Ellis]

I have ISOs of Win Vista & 7 that come with "easy activation" mods.
Apparently, The laser laptop is back in operation, and I did offer them
privately to rayc.

A VM is a bad idea as they come with very poor direct USB support.
