One of the LUG members asked me about the Xandros LUG discount code at the meeting this evening. I have copied that information below.
Dustin, we should probably add this info to the "Sponsors" page of the LUG web site. The Xandros Linux SIG/LUB discount code for the BRLUG/CCCC Linux SIG groups is 036ec84e82d6. If you want to read a review of Xandros Deluxe 2.0, which comes with BOTH Crossover Office and Crossover Plug-In then go here: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,1448588,00.asp This same article also contains commentary regarding Crossover Office ( http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,1448721,00.asp ), Crossover Plug-In here ( http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,1448588,00.asp ) and gaming on Xandros here ( http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,1448723,00.asp ) To purchase Xandros Deluxe 2.0 at 45% off the current retail price of $89.00 go here ( http://www.xandros.com/shopping.html ) and select either the boxed set or the download version. If you select the download version, you get to immediately download the ISO's and save the shipping cost, but you don't get the pretty box, slick silk screened discs and professionally printed users manual. Anyway when you get to the "Payment Method" page of the checkout process, enter the above listed code and you will get the discounted price of $48.95 plus shipping of $9.95, if you order the boxed set. By the way, I think the Crossover Office and Plug In bundle directly from Codewavers is like $85.00. Standard disclaimer - I am not an employee of Codeweavers or Xandros, nor do I hold stock in either, (but I will given the opportunity), just a very satisfied customer. If anyone has any questions, feel free to post them. I too am a Linux newbie and am by NO means an expert, but I have been using Xandros and the Codeweavers packages, as well as Win4Lin, for about a year now. Ed Richards
