You may want to also connect with the Ubuntu DC LoCo.

We're trying to reach folks who, like yourself are "fairly new" to Linux,
as well as reaching out to schools, libraries, etc to encourage them to
give Linux a shot as an inexpensive, flexible alternative.  (Although the
name suggests a bias towards Ubuntu, we're also friendly to other distros.
We won't bad-mouth them, but our focus is Ubuntu-centric.)
