Steve brought up an interesting topic too
I believe we could offer some created CD quarterly
when we find the 'fence sitters' who are waiting to
use Linux [or those who find it a bother to download, etc.]
TBD
But I see these CDs [or whatever material we do] as
great promotions at Fairs, Expos, Events, etc. to Joe Q.
Public. And I think no one would have a problem for a small
fee for what is produced; and that could go in the 'Treasury'.
