SUBISU CAN INFOTECH 2013(DAY 3)


FOSS (Free Open Source Software) Free As Freedom:
Our final day at Subisu CAN infotech, 7 September. Morning environment around event area was stress because of strike(bandh) by Maoist (baidhya supporter) so, the event was launched little late than early days than as  usual we move to our stall A135 and start to manage our stall. We were already out of our stock Nirvikalpa 3.0, we had only stock of linux mint 32 & and 64 bit plus Obuntu which was modified by Oscal linux community from Amrit Science Campus located in Thamel.
Soon the visitor were started to enter in the event, in the event our stall was one of the busiest stall. We were much happy to give information about free and open source software to our visitor which were from school students to older people. In stall most people ask us about what is linux? Is it hard to use? Can I install both windows & linux in same computer and so on. In the stall the people keep keen interest upon the OS linux mint 13 as it was much familiar to use, genuine and most importantly virus free OS.

Being a final day we had more visitor than previous days and volunteer. Volunteer were busy in one on one counseling with visitor giving genuine information to every one and finally at the end of day we were nearly out of stock of available DVD, left DVD were only some linux mint 64 bit and Obuntu, which make us happy because they were proof that we provide right information to our visitor.
Finally, we close our event by providing information to visitor about free open source software and importance of it.
