Any HN readers want to share what their Eagle Scout project was?
derwiki: I got my Eagle around 2000 when a bunch of local companies were tossing their old computers because of Y2K. I led a group of scouts and students to refurbish them and give them to the local schools. We got about 50 computers placed, ranging from 386s up to a rare few P2-266s. Most of them were internet ready (at least that was the goal) but we're pretty bare other than that. I can't remember for sure, but I think they all went to classrooms that didn't have computers newer than Apple IIs (including my preschool, where I first used a computer).In retrospect, I learned a lot about managing a project -- more than anything else I could imagine doing at 15, short of starting a company.
