Let me get this straight. The LUG will generally help each other (or
their classmates, other students, charitable orgs etc) with a free install.
Anyone who _can_ afford to pay for the install generally pays up (or the lug
members generally request some form of payment).
If it is a student etc, a dinner / beer takes the place of cash payment, (and
that too, the guy whose comp gets installed usually offers to take the
installer out for a beer) ... that's all
