Hi Kevin,<br>Tuck your PC under your arm and come to the next meeting and we can<br>probably install Linux for you. Let us know in advance what flavour you<br>prefer.<br>We do not yet have a Broadband connection where we meet so it will have
<br>to be from CD, between us we can probably find most things.<br>I don't think we deserve the title "Organisation", more a bunch of like<br>minded folks who get together and talk Linux.<br>Come along with a list of questions and see what we can do.
