I gave a talk at my local Kiwanis Club on Linux about a year ago. 60% of the members are over 60. Only 3 other people are IT types. After describing the software on Open CD, They took all 10 copies I made, and asked for more. They understood the value of FREE, with quality, and without spyware. Some even asked for help in upgrading to linux!

I am looking forward to a new and improved version to give them. I have downloaded and am burning for the next meeting. I see this as a step forward, even if they don't go "whole hog" and install linux. It probably helped when I told them I had been publishing the weekly newsletter for 3 years with Linux and open office.
