I think its more related in that we are a relevant group of people to pass this sort of information along to. As people interested in 2600, many of us use Linux and have tech jobs related to working with it or are looking for such a job.<br>
<br>John, thanks for the info. I don't know anyone up that way atm, but will pass along the info if I meet anyone that is. <br><br>-Sara<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Nov 4, 2008 at 11:02 PM, strages <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:strages@gmail.com">strages@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

After a grueling 7 hour drive, with 3 screaming children (emphasis on<br>
SCREAMING) we got to our hotel in Warner Robbins, GA where I glanced at the<br>
public computer in the lobby to see...<br>
<br>
Linspire!<br>
<br>
The hotel manager on duty even stated that their entire hotel system is run<br>
on Linux. They've been debating moving it over to Windows, since they had<br>
some issues with training. I informed the manager that a lot of Linux<br>
training/assistance is freely available through local LUGs. If anything, I<br>
also let them know that Linux support is often competitive so the going<br>
rate vs. Windows training is often of better quality, as well as the actual<br>
service itself. He said he'd pass that on and even take a look into it<br>
before they made any final change overs.<br>
<br>
If anyone has friends in a GA LUG in the Macon/Warner Robbins area, you may<br>
want to pass it on to them that the Super 8 is in need. I put in my good<br>
word, as well as a hardy pat on the back for being ahead of the curve.<br>
