Yeah, this worked quite well with one couple that dropped in to a lug
meet a few months ago, just to get openoffice installed, then a month
later to get it re-installed due to a system restore.
So how did they find out about us/you?

Well we usually get listed in the local community magazine,  (beach hut)
in torbay, or i have got meets listed in the herald express, I am sure
we got something published a while back which brought a few people in.

essentially if you can get stuff listed for free, go for it,  that way
it reaches a wider user base,

I believe this particular case was because we got features in the computer column in the Herald Express newspaper and were offering copies of The Open Disc.
