Ah, of course.  Thanks.  I'll definitely load that on my Dell, and after 
your excellent presentation at our local Rev user group I know it well 
enough to demo it.

One of the special events at SCaLE is UbuCon, a day-long series of 
presentations focused on Ubuntu the day before SCaLE proper starts.

I just got confirmation this morning that I'll be giving a talk on 
helping Mac users get oriented to Ubuntu.  For those attending, my 
session is at 1:30 PM on Friday, Feb. 25.

With any luck I may be able to meet Jane Silber, Canonical's CEO, along 
with other luminaries from Canonical, Fedora, and the other biggies in 
the Linux world. If nothing else the sessions they're providing will do 
wonders for my Linux education, helping me prep for my talk at RevLive 
2011 in April on deploying to Linux.

UbuCon is a very exciting opportunity.  As much as I love the Rev cons, 
I haven't been this jazzed about a conference since my first MacWorld. :)
