Chris,
I'm planning to start offering computer repair services, and have eyes on
start teaching IT related stuf, within the principles of Free Software. I'm
studying for that.
I'll be grateful to you for any help in this matter!

Hello Chris,
This is very encouraging advice and intriguing. I'd be very interested in
your business plan. What would be the best way to contact you?
chris is the user name and the domain is thinkpenguin com for the email. Just
send me an email and if you have a jabber account send that too.
Agreed. Case-in-point was this past Thursday at my Authorized Mac Reseller
store on my campus. I cringed listening to a poor student salesman pitch why
a student needed a $1300+ Facebook machine; the only reason why I didn't
intervene was because I knew she needed the commission and I tend
It is possible to get people up and running on free software or mostly free
software. The trick is to make sure they have the support for it. Most users
don't know any better. You can stick a GNU/Linux system in front of them and
it is easier to figure out than a new version of whatever they
Advocating for free software is really hard, I can't manage to get the
message accross to most my friends too. People are too used to think in

explosion in GNU/Linux adoption, but I've started to grow disheartened
lately.
The people I've shared GNU/Linux with have adapted well to

Looks like it shoulda been Balmer instead of Jobs that croaked. Bastards.
The current problem here in the US with computers is that if someone buys
one, it is usually through a major store like Best Buy or Walmart while some
turn to Amazon or Dell.com for online sales. Of course there are Apple Stores
and Microsoft trying to expand on their Microsoft Stores
I can understand how you feel, but consider what a jerk Balmer is and how his
acting impacts Microsofts image ;) Jobs was a much better leader than Balmer,
actually likeable if you aren't aware of freedom issues with the software.
Jobs being not there anymore is a big impact on Apple, Balmer
The way GNU/Linux moves forward is by improving the product (funding the
development of free software), making it readily available (ThinkPenguin.com,
catalogs, TV, phone, brick and mortar availability with sales people
dedicated exclusively to a product line), and marginalizing non-free
