[NBLUG/talk] Linux Questions for next month's talk

[Mervin Buenaflor]

Since people new to linux aren't ready to let go of
Windows because they think everything else is hard to
learn, why not discuss about desktop managers, KDE,
GNOME, star office, and maybe show off beryl.

Questions:
How do I run a program?
How do I install a program?
How do I uninstall a program?
How do I connect to the internet?
