We’re a group uber-geeks with different specialties and backgrounds getting together once a week to talk about what’s hot, what’s not, what we like and don’t like and why. Conversation is frank, candid, and sometimes a little crude. Every week we try to get a UNIX\/Linux geek, a Microsoft\/Windows geek, and a Apple\/Mac geek together to talk about current topics and why their choice of OS is better than the others.<\/p>\n
