This may be my cue to mention that we (CABAL, BAFUG, and others) are
having a Linux InstallFest and BSD Install-a-thon _tomorrow_ in
Berkeley, 10 AM - 4 PM.  Michael is very welcome to come and at least
discuss his situation, if not get technical assistance with setup and
configuration.

Details are here:  http://linuxmafia.com/cabal/  All are welcome.  Drop
in for help, to help others, or just to hang out.

LOCATION:  Longfellow Arts & Technology Magnet Middle School, 1500 Derby
St. @ Sacramento St. (north of Ashby), Berkeley.
