Hi Adrian

I'd be interested in that, I have plenty of distro's I could bring along on
CD's.  Where would it be hosted?

Regards

Stuart

Glad to see there is still life in the group, even more pleased to see
someone else with RH7.3 and exstatic over someone else using old machines.

I know that a fraction are setting up the Lancaster group and wish them
all the best if it means it is closer and more people get what they want
from Linux.  Is it worth asking if anyone is interested in a type of
Install day, Leyland next wednesday or Thursday.  That would be the
25th/26th Sept.  I am not a guru, infact just a newbie and will ask lots
of questions, so will need somebody to act in that role.

Anyway the chance is there.

Adrian
