[act-ma] 2/18 (Tuesday) Linux class, 6:30pm @ SETC

[Steve Revilak]

Wanna learn about Linux?  Join us on Tuesday Feb 18th, 6:30 - 8:00 pm
at the South End Technology Center [1], 359 Columbus Ave., Boston.

GNU/Linux is a free software; that's free as in freedom, and free as
in beer.  It's a full-featured operating system, developed by people
from all around the world, and it comes without the costs (or
restrictions) associated with proprietary systems like Windows or Mac
OS.  Linux respects the rights of its users, and it's not tied to a
company who's eager to turn your personal information over to those
notorious three-letter government agencies.

This Tuesday we'll cover Inkscape [2], a free software program for
creating vector graphics.  Inkscape is available for Linux, Windows,
and Mac OS.

Hope you can join us.
