All we are here to do is help you use Ubuntu Linux and it's associated Open-Source applications. There are no dues or fees of any type and all services are provided free of charge. Please also see the general Linux discussion on the Olympia Linux Users Group forum at http://olylug.org. We will do whatever it takes to help you start using Ubuntu including giving you all the software, installing it for you, showing you how to use it and fixing it if it ever breaks. We don't know how to make it easier tohelp you start using what we think is the finest computer operating system available at any price. <<Include(WashingtonTeam/Includes/Header)>>
