nice flyer - very informative. however, if you ask me, i think these are the reasons byu students should get involved with linux:
1 - every new major internet technology uses linux 2 - you will likely get a higher paying job if you know linux 3 - if you don't learn linux, you will be obsolete before you even graduate there is a strong case for each of these points, and even if some folks disagree (and those who do disagree are either not talking about mainstream new technology or need to get hit with a clue stick) - it's sure to start fun and lively discussion. my $.02 Josh Coates http://www.jcoates.org -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Erin Sharmahd Sent: Saturday, August 28, 2004 11:14 AM To: BYU Unix Users Group Subject: Re: [uug] Booth in the Wilkinson Center hope this edit doesn't come too late as far as printing of flyers "You'll still be able to do most everything that you usually do in Linux that you do in your current OS" this statement doesn't quite work. Reading it, i see what you're trying to say, but it doesn't quite say it... how about: "you'll be able to use Linux to do everything you do with your current OS" or... "You'll still be able to do most everything that you usually do in your current OS in Linux" ~Erin On Thu, 26 Aug 2004 23:57:28 -0400 (EDT), [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Thu, 26 Aug 2004 17:26:12 -0600, Andrew McNabb <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > wrote: > >> ... > >> and plenty of flyers for handing out. > > > > About the flyers, they really will look a lot better with vector tux > > than with raster tux.
