Re: [PLUG] LinuxWorld Expo


Well, I was there for Wed & Thur.  Not so much the booths, but the
sessions.   Those were the most interesting for me.  A rundown on the
different Linux distros [specialist distros].....an explanation of the
Linux terminal server [fascinating] .   

Some of the less exciting for me was the XFree86 4 update....totally
over the head of anyone but a graphics engineer!   

I especially enjoyed the Keynotes by IBM, Intel.    The "presentation"
by VA was a bit too much on the advertising side of things.
