Stephen and X Y,<br>The special part is that it is not a public event and not a PLUG event.  Mesa Regal is a 55+ RV park with an active computer club.  Eric Shubert, myself and a Linux end user user recently attended an Expo they held.  We manned a Linux table.  We now have 17 people signed up for this installfest for their club.  We did this 2 years ago and installed Linux for 25 people.<br>

<br>X Y,<br>Since I have no idea who you are, it is hard to know anything abut you.  But if you can help install ubuntu 9.10 as a standalone, dual boot with windows, or to replace an old Linux in a dual boot environment we can use you.  I wil plan on your attendance.  Please tell me if I know you and who you are even if you do that off list.<div>

<div>There will be an installfest on Saturday Feb 13 at Mesa Regal, at 4700 E Main St (Apache Trail) in Mesa, about 1/3 mile east <br>of Greenfield on the North side of the street: <br><a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;q=4700+e+main+st+mesa+az&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;z=12&amp;ll=33.415681,-111.729927&amp;spn=0.19716,0.338173&amp;om=1&amp;iwloc=addr" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;q=4700+e+main+st+mesa+az&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;z=12&amp;ll=33.415681,-111.729927&amp;spn=0.19716,0.338173&amp;om=1&amp;iwloc=addr</a> <br>

<br>We will be in their computer room from 8:30 AM till early afternoon.  I believe we have 14 Ubuntu 9.10 installs (mostly dual boots) scheduled and only 3 volunteers.<br> - Larry Thiel (me)<br> - Eric Shubert<br> - Joe Zagar (at least I think he will be there)<br>

<br>I could use at least 2 more people to help.  Dennis Kibbe, Patrick Callahan,
 Robert Callahan, and JT Moree helped at this event a couple of years ago but I have no idea if they are available this time.  If you can help out, please let me know asap.<br>-- <br>Dazed_75 a.k.a. Larry<br>[...]</div></div>
