<div dir="ltr">The purpose of this W2L is twofold. Yes, we intend it both for students/developers and for desktop users, but not at the same time, usually. <br>Of the first two talks, the first (dev tools) is specifically targeted to students (note the hour). The second is non-technical, and is specifically targeted at wide users audience. The reason Eli speaks at the first talk, is to promote the club and the rest of the W2L talks (including the second). The last talk is also intended for developers, although not necessarily students.<br>

</div>For CS students who need to know that Linux exists, I agree with you.<br>
But not for potential new desktop users.<br>
