Event description
Windows 11 won't support your old computer but you're not keen on shelling out for a new one? Concerned about telemetry and privacy on modern compute platforms? Just want to learn what else is out there? Perhaps you've heard of Linux and want to know more?
Come join myself, Chris and John for a quick lunchtime session on using Linux!
We'll go over how to install and use popular variants and what software alternatives exist that might cover your existing use cases. We'll have a handful of desktop and laptop computers to try out and see if Linux could make a cheaper, greener and more privacy-focused alternative for you.
We're open to covering a variety of topics depending on the audience, such as:
Using Linux as a 'daily-driver' desktop.
Alternative software to cover common applications.
Tip for using Linux as a server.
