[NH LoCo] consulting

[Greg GERACI]

I would be interested in helping out with this too. I am not a
hacker/programmer, more of a power user that wants to utilize the most out
of the computer. I've been using Ubuntu for just over a year now.

I have been considering putting together a .pdf document for helping new
Linux or Ubuntu users out with lists of software to consider using, and
helpful websites for Linux and news regarding Linux too.

Also, I live in Manchester, if anyone would like to meet. Please e-mail me
off-list for setting up a time.

I do know that CompTech in the Shaw's Plaza on South Willow Street in
Manchester is slowly adding Ubuntu to their lower-priced computers to sell.

I still think there is plenty of room for a Linux-specific computer
tech/help business. And if it helps grow the Linux user's movement, all the
better!
