Indeed, noobs we all are at some point.
I do hope to make a meeting, such a gathering of Linux enthusiastic 
people intrigues me. I'm rather bored with tech geeks who just wanna 
discuss Windows and Games. Not that I'm not a fan of games, just I find 
the system as a whole interesting.

Oh, and while I'm on the subject of meetings, where are they held? Are 
they held at the same venue every month or do they rotate? The website 
said almost nothing of the sort, but a time and date.
