Re: [seul-edu] Linux DTP



Doug,
    I was falling asleep so I left the NOLUG meeting early, but the members are very helpful with advice and technical assistance. For example, one of them sold me a brand new full tower case still in the box for $25 so I can put together a nice classroom server to replace the old 486-66. (I picked up a dual pentium-pro motherboard on ebay, and am putting together pieces and parts.) Others have offered to give me SIMMs and even a complete 486 system to use as a client in the classroom. 
Thanks for asking.

I know Harry McGregor was talking about checking it out, but I don't
know if he got the chance.  I never did, but I did talk to an IBM
rep about the pressing need for a Linux-based DTP program.  Maybe
something will come of that eventually.

So Dave, how was your first NOLUG meeting?
