It's closer to LIG, I suppose.  There are lots of newbies who would like help
with their first linux install.  [moving it to LIG now that you mention it]

There are several linuxers here who generally help out (and get treated to beer
/ snacks in return, or they may get paid if they are consultants of some sort).

Proposal: Instead of getting paid / guzzling beer at the newbie's expense, just
arrange for the newbie to donate some amount of money to a charity (say a quake
relief fund)
