MadFiber: Google Fiber Townhall Meeting Thursday at Olbrich
March 10, 2010 - 9:09am | by listrophy
The city of Madison’s efforts to host Google’s new high-speed Internet technology will be opened to public comment and contribution Thursday.
GOT LINUX MADNESS???
Join us at the Great Dane Fitchburg as we set our distro brackets. Will Ubuntu's fans in the stands be able to cheer them to victory? Will Fedora's fast paced development speed them past competitors? Will Slackware's senior leadership have what it takes to overcome their injury problems? With over 100 distros listed at DistroWatch, who will make the Final Four?
The only way to find out is to join us for LINUX MADNESS at the Great Dane in Fitchburg where there will be TVs to catch the Badger game (should they be playing).
Madison's First Ubuntu Hour
Setting in OpenOffice.org messed up? Scared you're going to mess up your partitions?Heard you could get a free operating system, but not sure where to start?
You've come to the right place!
Ubuntu Hours are a time when new users can come and ask questions without being afraid they will be made to feel stupid by experienced users. It's also a time when you won't feel crowded out by other discussions. It may not always be 1-on-1 support, but it will be close and might even be a better ratio!
--------------------------------------------------------
As for Ubuntu Hour instructors, in the words of Ubuntu Loco leader Anthony Hook:
'It’s a pretty laid-back event with little expectations. If nobody asks one week, maybe you’ll talk to 4 people the next week. It’s a good time to get some coffee, catch up on some work, or just browse the Internet. I’ll probably even take pictures of where I am each week.

VirtualBox – A Comprehensive Overview
VirtualBox is the exciting virtualization technology which lets you run multiple operating systems simultaneously on one computer. It's simple to use and allows you to avoid the hassles of partitioning and dual booting, or the quirks of compatibility layers like Wine. Now you can run a variety of operating systems (Linux, Windows, etc.) within you current Linux OS and seamlessly flip between them.
