(you can fill in garbage info and still download the report, btw. Or request it from the authors or me.)

Starting to prepare my presentation for our local area #hamradio club on how to install #linux on your computer. Any recommendations for things? I don't think I'll have any time for software install, just linux setup. Maybe do a follow up on 73 linux or something.
