[Chester LUG] Tech Talk

[Ben Arnold]

Luggers --

WRT the tech talk/demo, it occurs that the subject of the last one may be a 
bit out of reach for Joe User so I thought that practical real-
life™demonstrations would worth a shot.

For the sake of keeping things going right, I reckon some could stick to 
showing fairly straightforward things like installing a different desktop and 
feeling your way around (showing equivalent GTK, QT, E17 whatever apps), 
getting VirtualBox up and explaining it a bit (showcase/test distros?), 
backing up a Windows box over a network etc. or generally accessing network 
resources...

While I do think that some complicated stuff should show the power (tempted 
with another ™) those that walk through the door might want stuff that is 
actually *useful*. Also, with this kind of subject, pretty much anyone in the 
group could demo something if they had time to prep but crucially could 
understand what was going on to explain it later or help someone that might be 
thinking about doing it themselves.

What ya think?

Ben
