OK, what is tuxbiz.com selling? Or is that a subject for tonight's business?
My two choices would be (no particular order);
1. The GNHLUG merchandise (if we can do this). Has the advantage of setting us
up for later in terms of selling GNHLUG merchandise, downside of a) all the
non-profit discussion below, b) we would have to get cracking on the images.
2. "Tuxes" i.e. grabbing some of the Tux images at the web site posted to the
list a while back, making up cute descriptions, throwing in some prices, etc.
Maybe for the 1st LBS, do the Tux images, sell cute penguins.
