Club Linux Coffs Harbour

This year I ran a trial at a primary school in Lismore where all the year Year 5 and 6 students had a HP 2140 Netbook running Ubuntu. The trial has been a huge hit and will be continued next year. All computers in the school are now running Ubuntu KK. I have been asked to role out the same system at SFX Woolgoolga next year. Please let me know if you would like to know more about the pilot program.

I thought the Free Software day was very good, even for this old slow learner.

 I feel a little embarrassed by my "demo" as by the time I got around to it I was the student trying to teach the professors.

 The day showed me, very much, how much I do not know about the use of Linux programs. I am learning though, slowly, but learning.

All in all a great day and Matthew and his lovely wife should be really pleased with themeselves.

The last meeting, 19th March was a great learning experience.  Glen Cunningham is a valued educator to our group and we hope to hear a lot more from this man.

Our younger member, Hugh, has kindly stepped into the ring to make a presentation on GNOME at our next meeting.

Please encourage Linux users to register on this web site, we need the input and numbers.
