After my 7.3 experiences with YAST2, I won't touch SuSE with a 10' pole.
I'm happy with Debian, and just downloaded Slack 8 for my next test
distribution.

Er, I have Win4Lin for you (Jim). It is the copy that Hans got you.
I've been bringing it to meetings in the hope that you'll be free for
one.

End of the month this month, or end of the month May?

Just to catch everyone up - after the library closed, we had another
little discussion outside in the hall (bad idea by the way, they start
locking all of the doors in the mall). The idea of two meetings was
brought up - one general Linux meeting for newbies/non-technical/basic
configuration subjects, and one more technical meeting for
programming/advanced configuration stuff.
I think it's a good idea as long as we can keep the group from
fragmenting. It doesn't do us any good to have people who know a lot
about *nix if the newbies never see them around. (Of course, we need to
work a little harder on ATTRACTING newbies in the first place.) A
variation on the above theme that came up was one monthly main meeting,
with smaller "project" meetings throughout the month. For example, we'd
have a May meeting for general subjects, and everyone interested in
Apache/PHP/SQL would organize a later meeting to specifically discuss
that project.
Cheers,
James
