shouldnt it be better to _Unite_ the efforts ?
my point is, shouldnt it be better for the cairo university Linux Users to
just join Linux-Egypt.com ? instead of spreading around several small
groups, one BIG group should be more effective :))

they already have a website/forum/users.

you can learn from them and they can learn from you, they have been
advertising linux for some time now.
they already have a Linux Install Fest coming up on saturday, try to be
there.. :))

just a thought :))

i appologize if this post is out of 'general' scope :))
