i know that borders is still stocking them.
the day this thread started they had both.
but i had LJ at home and was so excited to see a new one
i did not check to see how many (LJ) were there.

phrostie

and yes it is growing.
but many of the engineers at work will only come and ask me questions
if no one else is watching or listening.

it's like they're still afraid that big brother is out there.

I think it is more likely that stores are selling out of their copies of

In fact, I think ACLUG has the potential to really increase in size right

bigger meeting place, and maybe do some things to get noticed in the
community. As Yoda always says, "Never underestimate the power of the
source". We know he was talking about the Linux source...  ;-)
