I've lived in Fairburn for about two years now.  Yes; it's certainly
not the most up-in-coming tech spots for the open source types.
That's why I'm wondering if it's too much trouble.  The lack of funds
might make it a good breeding ground to get folks to use a FREE
operating system.  Again; it might be fruitless... it's a tough call.
