<p>Pffttt,<br>
Look at me, 20 years on the group, barely attended a handful of
meetings, even used a mac computer for couple of years in my life,<br>
sent about 20 emails way back when.<br>
Ignored, cast aside, invisible, heretic. But quitter? Nevaah!<br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">NMGLUGers, I
think it is time for me to resign my active membership in the
GLUG. Although I keep computing, I am no longer breaking new
ground and not interested in being the hobbyist I once was. <br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Oddly though,
I am still doing some things. I am writing this on Xubuntu,
Gnu/Linux installed on a former student 11 inch
Chromebook(tm). The conversion removed all of the former OS
after borrowing a script to rewrite the boot system with
SeaBios or one of the other Coreboot varieties. Instructions
are found at MrChromebox dot tech or other pages on the 'net.
No major glitches, no major issues. I am limited by the emmc
chip on the board - 16 Gb, but it works. <br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Nice to have
a really functional terminal and man pages and such. As well
as the freedom to choose my applications and modifications.
Used student C-books are cheap because the support for each
hardware is only 4 years. A real waste of resources and trash
producer for the landfill.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">I may try to
be present at this weeks meeting, I will have nothing to turn
in and the recent discussions have gone beyond my level of
activity, but it is fun to listen.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Be well,
Thank you, Ted P.<br>
