Is the LUG a thing of the past? 162

Do we still need LUGs, given the ease of installation and ubiquitousness of online information about Linux? Lots of people say, yes, we still need LUGs (and some disagree)."

The other way round has happened much more often: on more than one occasion, I've installed Firefox and Thunderbird after a hot steamy mandate... Once, we even "did it again" right after the install. Indeed, the time of the download allowed my "batteries" to resplenish themselves of plenty of fresh chantilly for a juicy second shot :)
A different way to advocate free software, hehe...
Unfortunately, one time I got short-changed, and got crabs. I would have understood it if I had installed Internet Exploder and Outlook on the guy's box, but for Firefox and Thunderbird?!? Thankless bastard!
