Today was a little overcast but it was a rather pleasant temperature. We had a pretty good food layout from a shrimp ring to cookies to juice and coffee as well as our usual rolls and veggie tray.

There was a discussion on the difference between different versions of Linux – Ubuntu, Puppy and Mint. You can open mail in Linux if you think it may have a virus in it and have it go no where. Also how to boot from a Linux disk when your Windows won’t load. In the future we will have a workshop on how to boot from a Linux CD and have a capability to access the windows files.

During some meetings the club conducts a drawing for prizes. Actually, it seems like they've been drawing for the last few consecutive meetings. Anyway.... This month's drawing was won by Don. We can see him standing next to our benevolent president and Santa impersonator, Gary. The prize was a 4g Flash Drive, and has been for several months. Dianna must have gotten a great deal on them or something.
