Ubuntu-be on the Dipro Mega Market Ghent

Ubuntu-be will, as usual, be present at the next Dipro Mega Market event in Ghent.
Just like previous years, we’ll not only hand out free Ubuntu cd’s, but we’re also going to give advice and demo’s on how to use the most common applications.
Are you thinking about trying Ubuntu, but you don’t know how to start? Just come visit us.
We’ll give you the tips and help to get started.

But you could also just come by to say hi too of course. :)

If you feel like helping us out a bit, visit our wiki page here to find out what we still need or how you could help.
