[clug] September Canberra Linux Users Group meeting

[Jessica Fryer]

How about a HP Pavilion? I can't seem to find the magical config that
supports wireless and also allows me to get into my Microsoft SBS
environment for email, VPN etc. And I have had some weird slowness and funny
crashes even though all the major hardware tools say the lappie itself is
fine.  I have good hopes for what can be achieved in Slackware!
