Brand" Subject: freebsd/linux meeting Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG i've been asked to make a presentation to about 30-40 technology oriented business leaders on my experience using FreeBSD, Linux and the open source movement generally. an article featuring a mail/print/file server application i developed for a local grade school was printed last week in the business section of the Indianapolis Star. the meeting will be held in Indianapolis May 19th. my background is technical, but i'm not VERY technical about FreeBSD's potential/applications/etc. i'd like some help if someone can be here on the 19th. i have a few ideas for an interesting presentation. like: while i'm giving a backgrounder on where open source came from, who's using it, why, etc...another person is installing it on a system just to show how easy it is to get started. by the time my remarks are finished, the system is up and running and maybe even doing something useful. i could supply the system. what do you think? please let me know. kim brand To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
