Don't forget about Katanning!   :)

I haven't been active on this list much ..... haven't even been lurking 
much lately: too busy with my new business, however (prepare for a 
shameless plug (pun intended)), I run Great Southern Computer Services 
(http://gscomputers.com.au) out of katanning and currently around 25% of 
my customers use Linux...in one form or another or are in the process of 
being converted ;-)

My aim is to build an (almost) "Linux Only" support business in the 
Great Southern in the coming years...   Currently support Windooz (to 
pay the bills) but it's looking good for an all Linux job down the track 
a bit.    ;-)

Count me in if a "GSLUG" or whatever it gets called is a goer.
