[TriLUG] Business Help

How very interesting this thread has become.  The "switch" is how I got 
into Linux.  I was forced to learn this whole other platform, because of 
cost cuts to our non-profit .org.  I didn't have any consultant help in 
learning, just the the resources on the web, the good ole Tri-lug list, 
and occasional warning from UNC that my server was hacked.  

In my early days I would have killed to have a service like yours when I 
started on linux.  One year later, it would still help me if we could 
open the lines of communications for a consultation, as  my .org is 
looking at sprouting out on its own and most of the directors have not 
really considered the impact of the transition of our IT core.  

Why didn't I look for such resources before? Well....

1. 1st time as administrator (didn't know better)
2. couldn't afford a consultant.

Anyway hope to find out more from you Jason
