I printed up some posters, and have been putting them up in the downtown
area where there are bulletin boards.  So The Penguin is out there.

Someone might want to post a more detailed message to
comp.os.linux.announce

If anyone is looking for Linux related information, a good place
to start is at the Linux Homepage at http://www.linux.org

I also found a French page that might be of interest to some at
   Linkname: Linux Linux Linux Linux ...
        URL: http://uhp.u-nancy.fr/linux/index.html

If anyone misses this installfest, hopefully there will be more in
the future.

If anyone is looking for Linux, there is a webpage devoted to getting
unneeded Linux CD's into the hands of people who want to try it:
   Linkname: Linux CD and Support Giveaway
        URL: http://visar.csustan.edu:8000/giveaway.html

Also, there are various places where you can get Linux CD's for
a minimum amount.  There are a number of places in the US (you can
find their URL's at the Linux Homepage) and there is one in Canada
at
   http://www.linux-canada.com

You can get various Linux distributions from them for $9.95 Canadian
(this includes postage), which probably works out to about what it
would cost to order from the US.  I haven't ordered from them, so I
don't know how good the service is, but when I scrounge up a CD-ROM
drive I will be ordering from them.
