RE: [TCLUG:67] Donate spare parts.

["Jon Hartwell" <jh2bm@means.net>]

I am a total newbie to Linux.  I would appreciate install help.  I would be
travelling about 2 hours to come to this meeting.  What computer items would
I need to bring to get some help installing (main CPU, monitor, keyboard,
mouse, etc.).  Let me know, I would appreciate any help I and advice I could
get.  I am excited to begin learning this operating system.  Thank you.

Hmm, how many newbies can we expect? I haven't invited any, myself. If
they knew to bring their machines, we could have some installation fun.
I'll forward this to SIGFS-List, where I know there are at least three
curious newcomers.

Personally, I like Saturday afternoons. Although I am flexible.

That's me, the wild and krazee one...

Sure I'll take care of it, and I'll post to the list on Sunday evening.
