Hi everyone,

As some foreigners were interested in the Linux course for beginners's
session in Vietnamese of Jan. 27-28th, 2007, we have decided to offer an
English version of that course on Saturday 10th February, 2007 from 8am
til 5.30pm (lunch break around 12am for about 1 hour and half).

Fees for the course, including two coffe-breaks, CDs, printed materials

A maximum of 10 seats (one person per computer) is offered for this

Who may follow this course ?
People who are using computers but have never used Linux or installed
Linux by themselves and that are willing to (a) learn about Linux or/and
(b) wish to be able to install Linux by themselves on their own computer.

What is Linux ; what are Linux distributions ; what are live CDs useful for.
