Congratulations on receiving your free laptop! Please read the following points to ensure everything is fair and clear.
1. Gift & Liability
The laptop is provided as a gift.
No warranty, no return, no repair – use is at your own responsibility.
This protects both you and the project from misunderstandings.
2. Pickup & Introduction
Laptops are only handed over in person – no shipping by post.
A short Linux Mint introduction is paid, so you can use the laptop safely.
The introduction helps you get familiar with Linux Mint, as many people only know Windows.
The small fee also ensures the system is not misused (e.g., obtaining multiple laptops per person).
3. Who Can Receive a Laptop
Laptops are for people who really need them.
Please note: devices are not intended for resale.
4. Practical Notes
Some laptops may have a non-working battery – please bring a power adapter or cable if possible.
These are older models, so Linux Mint is installed – a lightweight and secure operating system.
5. Your Opportunity & Responsibility
The laptop gives you access to the internet, important information, online appointments, and communication tools.
Use the laptop responsibly and take care of it so it lasts a long time, helping future recipients as well.
💡 In short: You receive the laptop for free, learn Linux Mint in a short introduction, and accept it as a gift with no warranty. You take responsibility, but gain full access to a working device.
