Hmm... I wonder if we couldn't set up a recurring one day class for the
unemployed or underemployed on various Java technologies.

For companies, it'd be a great recruiting tool. Seed the community with the
technologies you want, and get a chance to evaluate potential hires.

I'm sure there are some tax advantages as well.

I'd also suggest a bit of Groovy and Grails in the learning mix.

If the hardware is fast enough, you might want to use a virtualization tool
like VirtualBox to create and share environments.
