[sf-lug] Sunday at the Javacat 11 AM to 1 PM

[jim stockford]

See you there, Javacat on Geary at 20th in SF.

I got a package from Marsee Henon at O'reilly:
it's got three books in it. I don't recall ordering
them, tho' I like them. If any of you ordered
books in the name of sf-lug, let me know (fast).
I plan to bring the books Sunday for perusal
and divvying up.

stealthily as a game device.  What does this all mean for Linux?  Is 
Apple
getting pinned between IBM and Linux?  What do processor architectures
have to do with operating systems and the future of software?  Adrien
Lamothe speculates how Apple's risks might open more doors for truly 
free
software:
