In the Boston, Ma area we have several Lunux user groups: The Boston Linux and Unix user group (http://www.blu.org) The Worcester LUG (http://wlug.org) The Metro West LUG The Greater New Hampshire LUG http://www.gnhlug.org). (GNHLUG has subgroups operating in several regions). All the groups have periodic Linux Installfests. Both the Boston and Worcester LUGs use SuSE at the Installfests as well as Red Hat and Mandrake.

It once came to my mind that it would be nice if Linux users formed a community in different cities where people like me had a chance to learn from experts. Where someone could actually take a look at my machine in cases like these. Where software developers (like me) had a chance starting new Open Source projects and had monthly meeting discussing design issues.
If I had this kinda knowlege, I personally wouldn't mind driving for 5 or 10 mintues and helping some stranger with Linux problems/migration from Windows, but thats just me...dunno what others think.
Naaah...maybe I am just dreaming. This ain't gonna happen :(
Linux User Groups (LUGs)? They're around. Haven't been to any meetings myself, but I know they're held at regular intervals. I'm sure there's one where you live too
