OK CHICAGO folks, what apps are you using??? What problems (if any) are you having?  * I use Gimp, Freeciv, and the openoffice apps quite frequently, they work flawlessly to say the least!

Im in the burbs of Chicago, out by good ol' Schaumburg. I am a KDE/Kubuntu freakazoid. I am usually in the Kubuntu IRC channel helping out, or testing Dapper lately. I have yet to have any issues caused by Kubuntu, only caused by me ;) I am up for a Chicago U/K/X/Edu/buntu team. - Rich Johnson (nixternal)

Chicago Ubuntu Team

Ubuntu users in the Chicago land area are currently trying to organize and create a Chicago Ubuntu Team. If you are in the Chicago land are and are possibly interested, please post your name and contact below, as well as visit us in the [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=159657/ Forums].

Initial Posting by Mike Greenwood

I propose a team with a initial goal of spreading the Ubuntu word to friends, family, Schools, Businesses, and Churches.

I already know of one company that is looking at Dapper as a replacement for XP, (this decision based off of one convert in the company).

Other roles of this team can be organized support for team members and possibily contributing support in the documentation arena.

This is a Great Panel Icon for your menu... I have no clue who created. attachment:Icons/Page/panel-replacement-distributor-logo.png attachment:IconsPage/panel-replacement-distributor-logo.png

Anyone idea's for a custom Chicago/Ubuntu icon?
