Hi, <br>
<br>
My name is Rich, I managed the Great Lakes Crossing store until they
closed it. They closed my store, Farmington Hills and Novi. They left
Roseville and Madison Heights open. I was at the Roseville location
until they laid me off two weeks ago. Unfortunately, I had just
finished the Ubuntu Laptops and was let go before I could properly
promote them. As far as I know the laptops are still for sale. Chris,
the manager of Roseville, is a great guy. Unfortunately he is manning
the store by himself. The Michigan economy + overall banking situation
just became too much. I hope they make it. I don't have anything bad
to say about them as employers, and I hope they make it. I've always
shopped them. <br>
<br>
Again, too bad about the timing with the linux laptops. I hand
configured them, loaded them up with everything. Wireless worked,
Compiz-Fusion was enabled by default (but easy to disable), and I
loaded them with codecs, etc... It would have been nice to see it
through. <br>
<br>
The two remaining locations are 12/John R and 13/Gratiot. <br>
<br>
Now that I am jobless, hopefully I can get more involved with you guys.
I've been trying to follow the emails, it has been a hectic two weeks. <br>
<br>
Thanks, <br>
Rich<br>
