I'll volunteer, as long as scheduling will work. Perhaps one or two other
people could do so as well.
We could bring a few computers, perhaps, do some things like:
remote-X applications
play screensavers in the background
try to get linux to crash
assemble a list of things windows can't do, and do them on xwindows/linux
show the linux_logo program (ansi pengiun installed by default on mandrake)
Let me know what the scheduling is looking like. What is your expected
class competency level? How far in to the term will it be? You might want
to start off with windos and mac, so when they see linux, they'll have a
grasp on what OS means, and will appreciate it more.

Subject: LCC 140 class
I'm teaching an "Operating Environments" class at LCC. Nice idea: teach
beginning CS majors how to operating in WinDOS, Mac and Linux.
Problem is that most people who teach the class do maybe one class period
toward the end of the semester in a shell window and say "There, you've
seen Linux."
I'm wondering if there is someone who would be willing to show off what
Linux can do at LCC--maybe in about a month? I'd arrange place & audience,
will be happy to help with shlepping, buy lunch, etc.
thanks
