                 LinuxFest2000 Scheduled For Kansas City

It's 'Kansas City Here I Come' for Linux, the fastest growing, most
talked about operating system of the decade.  LinuxFest 2000 will be
held June 20 through 23, 2000 for Seminars and Forums and June 21-24 for
the Trade show.

"Our goal...", according to Greg Palmer, President of Mobius Marketing,
producer of LinuxFest, "is to demonstrate the power of Linux and Open
Source Software to IT and business owners across the US and specifically
the heartland of America."

Recent spectacular IPO's by Red Hat, VA Linux, Cobalt and Slashdot have
taken the stock market by storm and LinuxFest2000 will be the first
opportunity for the midwest to see what the excitement is all about.

Major well known companies like IBM, Compaq, Informix and Oracle have
committed to Linux, however most people are exposed to Linux on a daily
basis, because Linux powers much of the World Wide Web.

Over 60,000 square feet of space will be dedicated to booths.  Seminars
will cover the simple to the most complex computer topics.

Most of the established major Linux companies will be represented, plus
many startup cutting edge companies will also be in attendance.
