Words For The Taking

Hello Everybody,

I missed the blessing of IRC chats. Yep, I have been MIA but stayed in a Ubuntu state of mind. Most of my efforts is taking the culture of open source.

I took some much deserved pride in posting my PGP key in launchpad. I know, for there are people that has long past there teething and it might not mean that much anymore. This was my first solo attempt to do discover the complexities of Ubuntu. Gotta be honest here, most of my motivation is bragging rights. I love to get underneath the hood of an O/S. Ubuntu has been my greatest frustation but my greatest accomplishment. I think it’s part of the indoctrination. I lost about 3 days of sleep and a lot of google and you tube.

We are pleased to announce the U of A Install-Fest!

The Arizona Ubuntu Linux Local Community Team and the Phoenix Linux Users Group would like to help you get the most out of your computer. If you are tired of paying for an Operating System that gets slower as time goes by. If you are tired of an Operating System that gets Viruses, Trojan Horses, Spy Ware, and other Malware. If you want to get more life out of that old PC that just can’t seem to keep up: we may have a FREE solution for you. Linux is a free, stable, and complete Operating System that doesn’t have the issues that some of the most popular systems have. We can install Linux on your PC alone or have it run along side your current OS so you can compare systems. Many PCs that are too old to run the latest versions of Windows can be revived by installing a version of Linux. Installations can be tailored to suit your needs and hardware, in most cases. Please RSVP and if you have questions about what to bring or how to prepare your computer please contact Todd Cole 602-677-9402 or toddc@azloco.com.
