Hi Allen,
Let me see what I can get for volunteers for you. We must have a couiple of
guys willing and able to assist you.
Good choice and I know with patience you will be rewarded with your choice
of O/S's.
Just for edification. Where is Fall Mountain Regional High School relative
to Peterborough or Keene?
I am forwareding this to our local group as well as the core group, the
GNHLUG (Greater New Hampshire Linux Users Group).
You might want to go and register for the mailing list and you could then
pose questions for almost immediate assistance. The web site with the
information is:
http://www.gnhlug.org or the Monadlug site is http://www.monadlug.org
