Glenn Leavell, Athens Linux Fest 2.0 co-coordinator, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ============================================================================== Contact: Glenn Leavell & Keith Ledford, co-coordinators Athens Linux Fest 2.0 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For Release: Immediate SECOND ATHENS LINUX FEST KICKS OFF AT UGA TATE CENTER August 30, 1999, Athens, GA...The Classic Hackers UGA Linux Users Group (CHUGALUG) is sponsoring its second periodical Athens Linux Fest, ALF2.0. The event will be held Saturday, September 18 from 11am until 7pm in the Georgia Hall of the UGA Tate Student Center. Admission is free and open to the public. The purpose of the Athens Linux Fest (ALF) festival is to promote the use of Linux. Linux is a totally free computer operating system originally developed in 1991 in Finland by Linus Torvalds. It is now written and supported by a loose-knit group of programmers from all over the world. The Linux operating system will run on almost every computer platform in use in the world today. Those who wish to give Linux a try are encouraged to bring in their own computers to the ALF Install Fest, where they will be able to meet with experienced CHUGALUG members available to help them get Linux installed and running. Registration (which is free) is required for the Install Fest and recommended for everyone. ALF2.0 will also feature a variety of Linux related demonstrations for beginners and experts alike, a Quiz Bowl, a Quake Garden, and lots of product giveaways. Thanks to the many sponsors who have helped to make ALF2.0 possible by either loaning equipment or donating products to be given away free at the event. They include: Apple, Cabletron, Caldera, Loki Entertainment, Macmillan Publishing, Mandrake, NEC, O'Reilly, Red Hat, SuSE, TurboLinux, VA Linux Systems, and VMware To register: http://www.uga.edu/chugalug/alf/ For further information: * More information about CHUGALUG: http://www.uga.edu/chugalug/ * More information about Linux: http://www.linux.com/ (30) - -- This article has been digitally signed by the moderator, using PGP. http://www.iki.fi/mjr/cola-public-key.asc has PGP key for validating signature.
