Hi, It appears some needed to know what SIGs, Special Interest Groups were. Here are a few LUGs who use them. Thereby bringing people together from various interests, and at various times and places, in ways they've agreed upon.
Los Angeles, CA: http://www.lalugs.org/ Las Vegas, NV http://www.lvpcug.org/directory.html Perl Mongers help SIG set-up: http://www.pm.org/successful/ Here's some rules to start one: http://www.pcc.org/sigs/sigguidelines.shtml They had a Hardware SIG, too: http://www.pcc.org/sigs/index.shtml Another hardware group mentioned here: http://www.lvcg.org/sig.html Do we have a Sponsor's Page like this: http://www.svlug.org/sponsors.shtml On a side note, without my working station wagon (have the parts, by the way), I don't plan to be the person in charge of a hardware SIG, but I can lug one on the bus. I just thought it would be a great idea to rebuild and upgrade our systems, or have old systems for a good cause. Unless things have changed lately, TMCC Linux Admin and Web Page Admin was rather difficult without a server to access in class. Many students dropped out of these classes for this reason. I stuck it out, but have lots to still learn. I look forward to seeing someone run with this ball. I hope we can meet at that computer store on weekends. I wonder what computer parts or systems are for sale at that store, too. I believe user groups should buy from sponsors whenever possible. Or if that doesn't work out, I'm sure something else will. Thanks, Joan _______________________________________________ RLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rlug.org/mailman/listinfo/rlug
