workshop in Davis, California.


When:
 Saturday, September 25, 2010
 10:00am - 4:00pm

Where:

What:
 Linux is a completely free, 'open source' operating system that can run
 on a wide variety of computer hardware.  It can act as a web-, file-,
 print- or game-server, run in a 'cluster' of computers to do 3D rendering
 or other intense math, or sit under your TV and record your favorite shows
 for later viewing.  Many people use it as an inexpensive, stable,
 virus- and spyware-free alternative to commercial software, such as
 Microsoft Windows.  It can be installed over, or alongside, Windows or
 Mac OS X.

 Members of the community are invited to bring their computers and laptops
 to this informal workshop, and volunteers from LUGOD will help you install
 and configure Linux... for FREE!

How:
 If you wish to bring in your PC, you must RSVP beforehand to reserve a
 space.  The RSVP form, and lots of useful information about Linux and
 Installfests, and how to prepare for the event, are accessible on the
 web at:
