Are there any Ubuntu useres that live/goto Champaign-Urbana/University of IL?

I would like to start a LoCo team, and it would be nice if I could have some better experienced linux users. I consider myself intermediate with linux, so I'm hoping for some more advanced users. Let me know if you want to partake in the creation of this group!

I attend U of I but I'm no Linux expert.

I'm not even using Ubuntu right now. :-# I'm actually using Vista RC1 (Build 5600), until Edgy Eft is released.

That's fine. I'm looking for as many people as I can find. And if there is no one as advanced as us here, then it gives us a chance to grow. BTW, I was gonna join the ACM LUG, but they only meet on Fridays at 6pm... :confused:

But I'm sure we could get help from one of those guys if we needed it.

My main goal will be to spread linux. I already have 3 of my friends wanting it. I also am hoping that we can get a decent sized group together before the release of Edgy Eft, and then get people to want it installed on their computers then. I don't want to mess with dapper anymore mainly because Edgy will have the 2.6.17 kernel with the updated wireless support (and seeing how almost everyone has a laptop, this is probably a smarter decision).

Anyone else here from the University of Illinois or Champaign-Urbana in general?
