[ubuntu-us-mn] [tclug-list] For the TC-LUGers that are interested: Free demo/training of Sophos in Burnsville

[Jordan Peacock]

Just moved in a couple weeks ago. It's mostly an AS/400 (or iSeries, or i5,
or whatever the hell IBM is calling them these days) software shop, or
Windows software that interfaces with an AS/400, although we are starting to
do things on Linux as well.

Used to be over by Burnsville Center in those squat brown offices on
Burnhaven. Oh yeah, and don't be deceived by the Google Maps directions; use
the ones on the link if you are planning to come. Judicial Road does a weird
circling around are there are apparently two points of intersection between
Judicial and Burnsville Pkwy/Southcross....and Google Maps picks the wrong
one. :)

What company are you with, Dan?
