Why don't you bowl them over with an LTSP setup (One decent server and a
bunch of el-cheapo clients)

This way you could show them how powerful, cheap and flexible Linux can be.

Some days you are the bug, some days you are the windscreen.

 << File: Don Gould (E-mail).vcf >> www.westside.bowenvale.co.nz

I'm working on a web site for our local church.  As you can see it's all
based on a Linux/Open Source platform.

My next mission will be to introduce it to the church (yes, you're seeing it
before they do).

Subject to acceptance from stakeholders, it is my intention to set up a
small set of computers at the church for people use.

I'd like to set them up on a Linux/Open Source platform running a number of
different versions of Linux.

I also want to set up some machines running Windows 98/W2K/XP which will
dual boot to Linux.

Any help that you can offer would be appricated.

I have some equipment but any that you would like to loan/donate wouldn't go
a miss.

The church has a growing IT community.  I suspect they're mainly (read
'ALL') MS people.  I see this as an opportunity to do a bunch of good things
for everyone.


Cheers

About vCard: This message has a 'vCard' attached.  It has all my contact
details in it.  You can create vCards in MS Outlook (I used MS Outlook
2000).  If you use Outlook you can drag and drop it direct into your
contacts list.

If you create and send me a vCard it saves me having to type all your
details in to my computer (and making mistakes :).

My computer is linked to my second hand Sony PEG-SJ20/G Palm Pilot (which
I'd love to upgrade to a Sony P900 PDA/Mobile with a Blue Tooth ear piece).

"Your vCard" --> "Outlook 2000" -->  "PDA" = Less Time, Less Mistakes, More
Productivity! :)

Linux & Open Source Users: I belong to the CLUG Mailing List - It took me 10
years to learn to be productive with Outlook - How many installfests do you
think it will take to become productive with Linux?
