Re: [fsug-tvm] Why use Ubuntu , according to Dell
You guys are unnecessary wasting your guts on bashing windows, every system serves a purpose. There are more reasons that Dell can imagine to use free software. The promotion is a sales pitch as it saves them effort developing drivers and I am sure it wont bring down the cost of hardware. I appeal to forum administration to see to it that subscribers use this forum for enlightenment and not for market promotion.

Hi, As usual, this month's meeting will happen on June 12, Saturday. Christ Nagar school authorities has invited us to conduct our meeting on the school. Most of the teachers will attend the meeting to communicate with the volunteers to get them familiar with i...@school GNU/Linux. On the meeting, we have to take some introductory classes for them regarding Installation, using basic tools like OpenOffice.org, Tux Paint, Guido Van Robot and other educational tools. We need some volunteers for taking these classes. So, interested memebers are invited to attend the meeting and make it a great success. Date: June 12, Saturday Time: 2.30 - 5.30 Venue: Christ Nagar School, Velleyambalam (Get down at Vellyambalam junction. On the way to kowdiar, take a turn to the left side of the road. There is a statue there.) What about tomorrows Meeting?Yet no reply!! Anyway I hope everyone will be attending the meeting.
