NHS Linux Club
As a club, our main purpose is to provide low income families with cheap (free) reliable computers running a Linux Operating System. A requirement for this is all our members have a good understanding of computers and linux in general, which most of them don't when they join. So we will be happy to teach you about computers (even if you don't decide to stay to build computers to give to other people).http://nhslinuxclub.org
Local LUGs[edit]
Local Linux user groups meet (typically weekly to monthly) to provide support and/or arrange and host presentations for Linux users, particularly for inexperienced users. Given that Linux is not dominated by any specific corporate or institutional entity, LUG meetings typically encompass a broader range of topics than do the meetings of other user groups. Linux is predominantly user-supported, and some support is vastly easier via telephone or in person than over e-mail or USENET. LUGs are still primarily focused on hobbyist users and professionals who are engaged in self-directed study.
SVLUG is among the oldest and largest LUGs. It was originally formed as a Special Interest Group for the Silicon Valley Computer Society, founded by Daniel Kionka to support Xenix and "low-cost PC UNIX systems" (and later became focused on Linux, as the dominant free implementation of Unix).
