We could ask them. :) Selling CD's from a unpaid table *once* would probably 
not permanently annoy anyone.

Probably.

About the fliers: I'm not sure about trying to solve their installation 
problems before they happen.

What kind of information fliers can we offer about KLUG?

1. Things we do: Boogies, web sites.
2. Things we have: mailing lists, install meetings (and where we meet), 
CD's.

And what to tell someone about Linux that people at a computer show need to 
know?

3. What free, open source software is. (Liberal quotes from rms and esr 
here, I imagine.)
4. A summary of *nix. Some history, mostly features.
