Not necessarily a forum deal.
I just found a site the other day that sells books, distros with support, coputers ect. and put a portion of the sale back into linux and by the way those purchases are at a discount, a nice service to newbies.
Maybe linux newbie could have links on the front page and in the forum to such sites. I think if some of the new users were to get tyhe discounted and supported distros it would lighten the load on some of the gurus and there would be less 0 replies to questions.
I know that "linuxnewbie" was one of the first plces i checked out when i was looking into linux and those links would have been tottally helpful and i know newbies would like the idea of getting discounted linux with support and knowing that theyre contibuting back into linux devlopment.
