+## General Info
+
+LUG hosts a quarterly installfest on Friday of 2nd week. Attendees will be
+provided a USB drive and guide to dual booting their computers with Linux (most
+likely Debian or Arch Linux). However, attendees are welcome to bring their own
+flash drives and install any distro of their choice as well. Or if attendants do
+not feel comfortable with the possibility of losing their data, they can set up
+a Virtual Machine instead.
+
+The officers will also be doing a show-and-tell of their own obscure hardware
+which they have installed Linux on.
+
+At the end, we'll have a SuperTuxKart LAN party with our freshly installed Linux
+machines.

+You can view pictures from past installfests [here](https://linux.ucla.edu/zenphoto/).
+
+## Note on M1 and M2 Macs
+
+Due to their custom Apple silicon, the only Linux distro which works on M1/M2/M3
+Macs is the experimental Asahi Linux. You also have the option of setting up a
+Virtual Machine to run Linux so feel free to come and chat with us!
