[...] >Lets have a Charity Ubuntu Install I really like this idea. I think it would get good publicity too. In practice a major hurdle initially is the install. I know when I benefited from a SCLUG install day, it was a major turning point for me. As it happens I did not use it for some long time following, but, for me it was *real* it existed, and I had seen it happen! When the time came to try things for myself, although I was a helpless newbie for ages, I had the confidence to know that it was really possible. -- alan c -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
