Street-level #linux evangelism like...
Month after month, open "installfest" meetings, where people could bring a computer and get help installing linux on it.
Good things.
A teen shows up, says "I heard I can do programming. Help me?"
Or a couple scientists show up with an Alpha, say have no budget, but can we make it work?
But also dude with four 486 laptops, gonna switch family to linux. Boot PCMCIA/USB/Knoppix CD!
"They murder you in sleep, they will.
You are bad dad! Shoo!"

SVLUG was having fun in Santa Clara by crashing the rollout of #Microsoft #Windows 98 in front of some big computer store. Windows people were lined up to buy the upgrade.
One linux fella was hustling the crowd, while we handed out CDRs, shouting,
"You get all this with linux! Now, you are probably asking yourself, how much will this cost me? Nothing! You pay nothing! How can we sell it for nothing? It's because of the volume we sell!"
