Main Abstract:  Linux TCO (7:15 pm) 

Linux Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) attempts to discuss the common 
misconceptions about free software and it's place in corporate IT. Using my 
own work experiences as a case study, I will detail some of the actual cost 
savings and pitfalls of using Linux on the corporate network.

Otis Lamar is a Systems Management Architect with experience in planning and 
implementing enterprise management of Unix and NT systems and applications. 
Most recently, he functioned as Project Manager in IT for the Johns Manville 
Corp. headquartered in Denver. Targeted to the Unix and multi-user systems, 
Otis led the development, implementation and strategy for new systems at all 
55 locations worldwide of the manufacturing giant.

KISS Topic:  How to Install a Dialup Modem Using Linux (6:30 pm) 

Installing a dialup modem for the first time can be a frustrating experience 
for a Linux user accustomed to Microsoft Windows Plug-n-Play installation 
ease. This is especially true if you choose to configure Linux manually 
rather than make use of a nifty Linux dialup utility to get your modem up and 
running with your ISP. 

Jim Intriglia will walk through the process of selecting, installing and 
testing an internal modem card under Linux.

(The KISS session is intended for those new to Linux.  Feel free to join the 
meeting after the KISS session).
