LUGOD and SacLUG shared space at the "Writers in the Workplace" conference
held by the Sacramento Chapter of the Society for Technical Communication.
Brian Lavender and Mike Machado of SacLUG came and brought a laptop running
Debian with CrossOver Office, copies of Knoppix to give away, and two boxed
copies of RedHat and a 'SacLUG boxed set' of Linux discs to give STC for door
prizes. Mike Simons and Bill Kendrick of LUGOD brought LUGOD's demo computer
running Debian with OpenOffice and Abiword. Paul Miller from RoseLUG came as a
representative of OpenOffice.org. Rick O'Shaughnessy and Pete Salzman of LUGOD
made GNUWinII CDs for us to give out. SacLUG member Al Canton, from Adams-Blake
Company, donated a box full of his book The Silver Pen.
