Standard Membership (1 year)

Standard Membership is for anyone close enough to attend a meeting.

If you're farther away and there's no other LUG in your area, a Virtual Membership may be worthwhile. A Virtual Membership has benefits 1-4 and 8 although mailing costs will be applied for the discs ($1/disc within Canada).

  1. A Linux card CD. This cool CD fits in your wallet and lets you run Linux anywhere by simply popping it in the drive and rebooting. Some drives don't support these square-like CDs in which case you can get a mini-CD or a regular-sized Live CD of a distro of your choice.
  2. The Linux OS of your choice1 absolutely free! You don't have to decide right away – choose one anytime during your membership.
  3. 40% off the regular price of $5 per Linux CD-R ($3 per CD-R). Also, as a member, you can get Linux on a CD-RW instead for $5 (or bring your own) and get new Linux versions burned onto it for only $1 each time. You can also get a DVD+R or DVD-R for $6/disc for those distributions that have DVD versions.
  4. Other Discounts on some very useful commercial Linux products including O'Reilly books, Netraverse, Linux Journal subscriptions!
  5. Access to the club's Linux Library of CDs, books and magazines! And a chance to review books from major publishers.
  6. Up to two Linux gatherings a year with free drinks and snacks.
  7. A bonus entry into every meeting draw for donated distributions, books, software or hardware! Visitors only get a single entry. You must attend to win.
  8. Your very own @plugintolinux.ca address. Impress your friends! You can get email to it forwarded to another account or full POP3 & Webmail access. It's your choice.
1Depending upon availability and licensing.

You can join at a meeting or send cash, cheque or bank money order for $25 (Canadian) + $1/disc (for shipping) to:

      Peterborough Linux User Group
      3-794 Stocker Road
      Peterborough, ON  K9J 5T3
      CANADA
