Re: [PLUG] Debian available at Micro Center


If you want the details, VA Research has it on their site:
'http://www.valinux.com/software/debian/'.  It costs 19.95 and
shipping.  These days you can buy a Linux CD for very cheap ($1.50?)
before shipping, but I guess it's a good deal if you factor in the
book.
