  I was thinking more cheap PC hardware - in Oxford the best place to go
tends to be small family-owned places rather than big computer stores,
I just wondered if there was a Lansing equivalent.

  The way it worked in Oxford wasn't too bad - once a month we have a talk
about something, KDE say, or Beowulf. You need enough people for that though
- OxLug has meeting attendance of about 30, maybe 70-100 on the mailing list.
I don't know how large you are in comparison...
