Hey, guys -

I'm going to submit to the above (ADN, KSKA/KAKM, and Press) this
weekend for the upcoming installfest. The basics that I know of:

Date: Dec 13
Time: 1-4pm
Location: ?

Any suggestions welcome for text. Short is good, and
spoken-word-friendly is also good; maybe something along these lines?
 (Imagine KSKA's Bede Trantina reading the text ;-) )

"AKLUG (the Alaska Linux Users Group) is holding a Linux Installfest
at [location here] on Saturday, December 13th from 1 to 4 pm. Are you
tired of the Computer Virus of the Month? Want to get more out of
your old computer instead of buying a new one? Back up your data,
then bring your desktop or laptop down for expert installation help
and advice. You can even get free installation CDs. It's free to the
public. Brought to you by AKLUG - The Alaska Linux Users Group."
