    Scranton/Dunmore

    Any Scrantonians or Dunmorans?

    I'd like to think there are more people besides me spread Linux around these parts.

    Yup. I live in Dunmore. My Ubuntero friend lives out in Spring Brook, but goes to PSU Worthington Scranton with me.

    I will do my best to hang out in #ubuntu-pennsylvania on freenode (irc.ubuntu.com, the default IRC server in gaim/pidgin.) It looks like LaRoza does that too. I hope to see more of you guys there.

    Re: Scranton/Dunmore

    I was born in Scranton but now reside in another state. My elderly parents are in Montrose, Susquehanna County, and I spend a lot of time there.

    Actually hosted a Feisty Fawn Ubuntu Release Party in Montrose with some guests from the STNYLUG in Binghamton, NY, but have not been able to organize a group or team for an installfest yet.

    I attend Penn State Worthington, so I'm in the Dunmore area frequently (more than I'd like to be ). I come from the Moscow area.

    Seriously, Dunmore and Scranton really need a technological update. The only tech places that are nearby are Circuit City and Best Buy in Dickson City.

    Newegg is right out front, depending on shipping.

    I agree though, it isn't the easiest place to get tech stuff. There is a RadioShack downtown, and a computer shop which builds and fixes computers in Dunmore, called "Turtle" something.

    I believe they're called Turtle Computers & Distributors.
