Power O’ Unix

Posted by on October 15, 2007 No comments

That’s right boys and girls, it’s time for the leaving seniors to part their infinite wisdom upon you in ways you never thought possible.

WHAT: Power of UNIX talk.
WHAT? Learn how to use the commandline of your linux or unix based system.
WHERE: Bldg 14, Room 30[1,2,3] (somewhere upstairs in the compsci building)
WHEN: Thursday, Oct 18th 7:00PM.
WHY? Because the commandline is better than a loaf of bread (yet equal in awesomeness to sliced bread).

This event was a great success last year, so we’re doing it again. Come by to learn or share as your experience allows.
All ages, genders, and majors welcome.

FYM: Retribution

Event Date: 9/29
Event Time: 10am – whenever
Room: 20-124

Do you want to join the elite ranks of programmers on the Cal Poly campus? Then come to Free Your Machine this Saturday and have an experienced group of Linux Veterans install Linux on your computer free of charge. It’s a completely free operating system and set of programs continually improved by a vast community of developers. Many Cal Poly computer science and engineering courses are based around Linux, so the earlier you get familiar with it, the faster you’ll be up and running in those courses.

Pre-registration is recommended, so we can gauge space and personnel.

Look forward to seeing you there!
