OLUGgers are here to help as far as ideas, but the IT crowd is hurting for
work right now, so it's gonna be tough getting corporate employment doing
IT, even talking to the right people.

with so many "jobless" brains out there, maybe we should organize some kind
of open-source "expert squad".
charge less, push open-source, liberate the masses, etc.

most people would hire an expert before a geek any day.
...especially if that expert could tell you with confidence that you'll
never get another computer virus...

i walk into a place with an ubuntu disc, and an hour or two later walk out
with 50$ while saving the customer $100s (and a lot of headaches).
that's been my preferred MO lately.
linux is ready for prime-time, and i can verify that with the daily "thank
you"s i get for pushing it.
i'm expecting (and hoping) the next ubuntu release will take the movement
mainstream.


well, stay strong bud.
may luck and fortune be with you.
(and get the F--- out of that neighborhood!)
