To: Chicagoland Linux Users:
Please pass this on to anyone you know who might be interested. The
Linux
session could be very useful to help your management get a vision for
Linux!!!
If you have the ability to post the info (and/or the PDF) to any
Chicagoland LUG web site or newsletter, that would be great!
Abstract for Linux session:
All the elements of your infrastructure could be working together
seamlessly thanks to the open source nature of Linux. Let us show
you
how. Better yet, let us show you why companies all over the world
are
already running Linux.
Thanks!
