Hmm, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have more Linux venues. Let me advocate for the Linux virgins. The TCLUG seems like it deals with more technical aspects, and issues that really go over the head of the individual user. Having Linux seminars at PCUG would be a good idea for newbies and for people thinking about making the jump from MicroCrap to Linux. Or the LUG starts thinking about starting monthly meetings that are more heavily advertised geared to Linux newbies and Linux virgins. It might also be interesting to find funding from various foundations for computer education. We might be able to ties this in with the recession. It is one thing to expect the Linux experts to give their time to the Linux community, but expansion needs finances. -- Samir M. Nassar RedConcepts.NET
