Hello GLLUG,
We would like to add the NetMAX desktop to the list of Linux
distributions for your show. I can provide some copies or you can
download the desktop at www.netmax.org. We are scheduled to do a
demonstration with your group in Sept but this will give you a jump on
using the distro. If you have any questions give me a call at
734.668.2567 ext:156.
Thanks!!!
