[olug] August Talk

[Aaron Grothe]

The 5 things everybody should Root

1. Wii - still a fun little system - and really easy to hack nowadays - very nice 2600 emulator
2. Router - ddwrt/openwrt/tomato all good
3. Their phone/tablet(s)
4. Their Mom and Dad's router :-)
5. Their camera - CHDK is awesome

Rootfest is a cool idea.

Regards,

Aaron
