> On Thursday Sept 3rd 2009, Ubuntu Vancouver LoCo hosted the first ever "Ubuntu Beginner Night". This event was designed to provide a practical showcase for Ubuntu in a non-intimidating and supportive setting. It was designed to provide a little bit of coaching and support to those who needed it. '''Thank you to everyone that came out and made this a success.'''|| -------------- Short Summary of Meeting: * 14 people were in attendance * We had a brief presentation from Randall which is attached (PDF) here <> * Several people brought systems that had various anomalies * We could have used more time to fix more issues, but overall we accomplished a lot = Ubuntu Beginner Night (The Original Promo) = * Are you new to Ubuntu? * Do you know someone who is? * Are they skeptical? * Do you know someone who just never seems ready to try it? * Are they saving their money for "Windows 7" or "Mac Snow Leopard"? Yikes! Members of the community are free to drop-in and talk to people who live and breathe Ubuntu everyday. Ubuntu Vancouver folks will be there to demonstrate 1-on-1 the many ways that Ubuntu is amazing! Please RSVP here, and please bring the skeptical. http://www.meetup.com/ubuntuvancouver/calendar/11239242/ (And, if you live and breathe Ubuntu, please come and help.)
