Sure.  I'd love to write an article.  We should easily be able to top
that dorky article they had they had on Linux at the University of
Washington Computer Fair.  In fact, I had intended to write an article
about it.  The only problem is that even though I was at the booth all
day today, I didn't have all that much contact with the convention
attendees - I left this to those more fluent in Hebrew.  I mostly
fielded the more obscure technical questions, such as:

   -Can I use it to write unix format CDs?
   -Can I replace my Novell server with a Linux box?
   -I'm writing multimedia applications - how generic and stable is
    the API to the Video Blaster card?
   -I've been using Linux with double speed CDROM drives, but I can't
    seem to get it to work with the quad drives - what's wrong?

I started feeling like ygdrassil tech support.  The Hardware
Compatibility Howto started getting quite worn.

So, I think the article would be alot better and more representative
if I co-authored it with someone who was talking more with the
attendees.

I think Shai has already made a good cut on an article with his
classification of the atttendees.
