The n after Five star chocolate and Ubuntu cds to everyone we had a practicl session where I showed them various alternate softwares ... Stated with eclipse ...gone until ppl are bored showed some games,played mp3,divx in mplayer . Then after some office ubuntu presentations.. I closed ubuntu. Then after some sweets and snacks and cool drinks. We started fedora ...and showed gnome ,kde merits and demerits. showed yum and showed how command line of yum is better than synaptic of ubuntu. well google ppl will like how we ended.
