 "Point and Click" Desktop Linux Demonstration    Miller, Robin   

"Point and Click" Desktop Linux Demonstration

Abstract

Long-time  Linux  user and advocate Robin 'Roblimo' Miller will show you how easy it is to perform common office tasks with Linux. Miller says, "You only need six commands to use Linux on your desktop (or laptop): Point, Click, Cut, Paste, Drag, and Drop." This will be an informal, fully interactive session. Audience participation is encouraged. We'll take a look at some of the most popular office software that runs on Linux, not by watching slides but by actually using it to do things like read and write email, prepare a letter or two, set up address book entries, and whatever else comes to mind. We may even play a few games and listen to a little music, because there's more to life than work.
