I went to the Linux seminar at the library today. The turnout was rather 
disappointing -- two people. There were three yesterday but I thought 
there might be more on a Saturday than 2:30 PM on Friday.

I did get to see Mint Cinnamon in action and I can see why it's popular 
with Windows refugees. The guy running the seminars has only be using 
Linux for a couple of months and it was interesting to see a relative 
newbie's approach. He brought a terminal up at one point but didn't do 
anything with it.
