Looks nice! My main recommendation would be in regards to this: ``Want to try Linux but scared you'll screw up your computer?''
There are a couple of reasons why I would consider changing this. It juxtaposes ``Linux'' with ``screw up your computer.'' It gets people who are unfamiliar with Linux to start equating Linux with fear and doubt, when that is not really necessary. Also, there is quite a large number of BYU students who find the phrase ``to screw up'' offensive, because of its connotation in the Gentile world. I would also include the word ``Free'' in there somewhere. The Tux bitmap is horrific. Use the penguin.eps file instead: http://adele.gerwinski.de/~anja/gnuart/penguin/ There is another one that is black-and-white; look around for it. Last, but not least... it's *GNU*/Linux, dangit!! :-) Keep up the good work, Mike On Wed, Sep 10, 2003 at 07:46:26PM -0600, Evan McNabb wrote: > If you're interested in posting a flier to the installfest, here are the > URLs: > > http://students.cs.byu.edu/~emcnabb/installfest.pdf > http://students.cs.byu.edu/~emcnabb/installfest.sxw > > We'll have extra copies in the booth so feel free to stop by and pick > some up. > > In the last day or two we've had a lot of people sign up for the booth > and installfest.
