The bootable membership cards are (finally) here!

Take a look! The new ultra slim credit card-sized FSF membership USB cards have arrived. Of course member number 0 had to be for our founder and president Richard Stallman...

Loaded with gNewSense Live!, they are shipping out to members first thing in January 2009 (production problems have caused us a delay). Each card includes a member user name and member number and on the back displays an extract from the free software definition. We've also included some exciting advocacy tools, like speeches from Richard Stallman and videos about free software. Since the card fits right in your wallet alongside your credit cards, you can take the message of software freedom with you everywhere you go.

Another batch of member cards will be on order soon, so if you haven't done already make sure you're signed up to receive your card in round two (you can check on your membership here.) Brand-new members also receive the bootable membership card automatically, so if you've been thinking about joining, now is a great time!
