To qualify for hosting a ChicagoFun.org Entertainment Information Terminal you should represent a Chicago business with substantial customer traffic, such as a music, clothing or book store, services, city facility, or entertainment venue. ChicagoFun.org will give you an classic laptop computer pre-loaded with software. The software is very sophisticated and includes encryption, fault recovery, and automatic updating capability by floppy disk or modem without requiring a dedicated phone line or Internet access. You must be responsible for an extremely simple updating procedure which should be performed at least weekly. You may optionally add a printer and modem.
Classic hardware is used so theft and damage are of little concern.
The unit can be secured with a simple laptop security chain. Best participants will be given free advertising on terminals at other locations. Planned future features include coupon and VIP pass printing. You may also inquire about custom project work.
