Hello LUGgers,

It's time for another meeting.

Wednesday December 5th.
From: 6-8PM
Location: 3240 Hanna Lake Industrial Park Drive SE, Caledonia

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=3240+Hanna+Lake+Industrial+Park+Drive+SE,+Caledonia,+MI&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=24.455808,59.765625&ie=UTF8&ll=42.847275,-85.580063&spn=0.085205,0.159645&z=13&iwloc=addr&om=1

I am sponsoring food so please RSVP to cdubois at n-vint.com so I can
make sure to have enough.

The Agenda for this meeting will be "Enterprise wide Linux"

Don Wood has agreed to discuss how Standale lumber uses Linux (ltsp,
Debian, SugarCRM and Ubuntu) and their plans to migrate 40 or so
Windows thin client users by the end of 2008.
We are also interested in hearing how other companies are using or
planning to use Linux Enterprise wide.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns.

See you ALL next week.

P.S. I'll bring in another skid or two of FREE Hardware for anyone
that wants to sift thru it.

Sincerely,
Casey M. DuBois
