If you've heard about Linux but haven't tried it yet, join us at this
meeting and get an overview of what Linux is and does, and how it
compares/contrasts with Microsoft Windows. Panelists and commentators
will highlight its origins and unique place in the developer community
and share information on how to get Linux (including free downloads
for getting started), on Linux user groups, and on other Linux
resources.
