Anyone able & willing to participate in he following? -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix ICQ#28611923 / AIM abreauj / Email jabr at blu.org ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2000 23:46:16 -0700 From: Thomas Chai <tchai at jps.net> To: jabr at blu.org Subject: Windows ME Tour Dear LUG's, Microsoft is coming to the shopping mall in your city to promote Windows ME. Many of us think that this would be an opportune time for Linux users to show our preferred choice by showing up to hand out free Linux CD's. I have proposed to Linux Central to put up a new SKU so people can purchase Linux CD's to be sent to the LUGs in the city of their choices. The list of the cities for Windows ME tour is listed below as well as the link to MSFT website. The SKU is not up yet, as I have to coordinate with the user groups before Linux Central will take action. Would you please kindly let me know if people in your user group would be interested in handling out the CD's at the mall, granted that it's OK with the mall security? If possible, can you find out the feasibility in your area? Thank you. I'll notify everyone as soon as Linux Central put up the SKU on their website.
