4/18/11 - Richard (N7RIG) Caught in the Wild

Submitted by kg7hq on Mon, 04/18/2011 - 03:46

Just when you thought it was safe.... Richard was caught in the the wild at Linuxfest Northwest!!! An avid user of virus latent OS call Windows, he was embedded in a conference session taking in the open source wisdom of the masses. And to note that it was Kool-aid free!
