Their web site is not fancy (http://www.mk.lug.org.uk/) but it starts by saying: Welcome to the Milton Keynes Linux User Group (MK LUG) website. Milton Keynes LUG aims to provide advice and support to computer users before, during and after they install the Linux operating system. I know how scarey it feels - I was female (arghh) and over 60 (even more argghhh) when I first went, but there's nothing to be scared of. After all, even if it's absolutely lousy you don't have to go again <g> Start with the website. Join their mailing list, lurk for a day or two, then drop a line introducing yourself if it looks friendly. Let us know how you go on.
