Theater Management

Love your computer again.
Use Desktop Linux.
Safer. Simple. More secure.

Drama should be onstage, not in your theater's computer network. You're an arts organization. You needed the press release yesterday. The latest production notes should have been circulated by now, and the newest musical arrangements are there for your approval, if only you could get them from your email to the actual media player. Theater companies spend enormous amounts of their day communicating with the many people it takes to put on a production. However, the routine failure of their computer systems is often added to the enormous stress in keeping up with the work. Fortunately, it's easier than ever to convert to Linux, and it's cheap too. By Sarah Ziering.

Is Open Source good for theaters?
You bet! Many theater organizations are hard-pressed for cash to upgrade computer systems. Linux expert-cum-playwright Jens Porup offers advice to theaters and all arts organizations who wish to extend the life of their ''legacy'' hardware. Learn how to stop paying the ''Microsoft Tax, '' avoid windows viruses, prevent system crashes and gain access to free, smooth-running software. By Jens Porup.
