The first Wednesday of every month is...

WINDOWSLESS WEDNESDAY!!

Join us for a free DROP IN night of skill-sharing, problem-solving & education

7:00-9:30pm at Free Geek (back door)

• Getting help: all are welcome, beginners and up
  
• Helping others: we always need helpers with skills, please consider dropping by to help others
  
• Free or by donation.
• Note: we help with free & open source software/hardware issues only.

Want to try free and open source software? Find out how to install GNU/Linux on your computer? Or have a more complex question...? These evenings are first come, first serve. Drop in & write your name/question on the whiteboard; someone will come find you and lend a hand.

We assist folks who have GNU/Linux issues, hardware problems, or who are just plain curious. If you want to see what free and open source is all about, or try the Ubuntu operating system, you're welcome to drop by!

If you are already running a distribution of GNU/Linux, you might consider bringing your box down, so we can work together to solve your difficulties.

**CAN YOU HELP? We're always in need of extra helpers with skills and patience! Particular areas in demand: GNU/Linux & wireless, Ubuntu installs, hardware issues. Feel free to drop by and let us know you've come to help.

Check back here for updates, or join our announcement mailing list to stay posted about upcoming events!
