Welcome into the world of open source computing. A quick reminder that NLUG meets monthly on the second Tuesday of the month - next meeting September 8 (day after Labor day). Our next LinuxFest is scheduled for September 19 from 1000 to 1700 at Watkins College of Art, Design and Film on Rosa Parks Blvd. The LinuxFest is just the ticket for you to get past any configuration issues you may have remaining in your transition. Stay tuned - more coming! Howard White --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
