Re: MorLUG Comments

Um ... I work in E. Moore Hall on the downtown campus and could get that
reserved for us pretty easily ...

I haven't been to any meetings yet, but was on the email list before it
changed servers & then I got "lost" LOL

Been using linux, various versions, for I think 3+ years now and am
pretty comfortable with it, but definitely far from expert--I think I've
ALMOST got my husband convinced to switch, though :-)
