Yes, back when installing Linux could be a chore, and we had Bournemouth Uni access, folks used to take their hardware along to get problems looked at. > I also know the guys at BUNIX would be interested in partaking/running > similar such events and have tried in the past.

I don't know if having it as "formal" as the normal BUNIX meets would be a good idea though. There you have three talks. I'm happy to listen to a talk but preparing one is probably more time and effort than us non-BUNIXers can spare. :-) Perhaps folks just milling around machines chatting and looking at whatever's of interest on them or about them? What do others think? Then again, BUNIX meets are open to those that aren't Uni staff or students? So DLUGgers are free to gatecrash those? Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: Unknown http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=2645413 Chat: http://www.mibbit.com/?server=irc.blitzed.org&channel=%23dorset List info: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dorset
