I think LUG's are also important, but it is time to find a new mission, rather than just pushing Linux. Take that same passion, incorporate as a 501(c)(3) organization, get companies to donate computer (desktops and laptops) that they would otherwise liquidate, and refurbish them with Linux. Then, pass them out to schools and children who do not have a computer. It would be a win-win-win-win situation. The companies would win because they get a tax write-off. The LUG's would win by doing something for the local community and bring good press to itself. The schools and kids would win because they get good computers they can actually use (and afford) and Linux wins because you show how Linux really is a viable alternative on a large scale.
