If there's anything Nix related you'd like explained/ written about on the website, let me know. I'm planning to improve the content to that end.

Let's just say we used to download Linux distros overnight using dial-up internet and burn them to CD's for sharing with friends. :-) I used be part of Chennai ILUGC group, etc.
