For me the issue at the last meeting was finding the place (not being
an LSU'er) I did drive down to it but couldn't find a place to park -
why not hold the meetings at a Coffee Shop (CC's on Jefferson will let
you book the back room for free) where we can meet an have a cup of
coffee/tea/etc and a bun?
I'm sure that if we bought a computer we could find something to talk
about - I'd be happy to bring one next time...
Also - Newbie night ... I have a box of computer bits
(cards/CDROMs/memory/etc - mostly ISA but some PCI) that are going to be
thrown out - would there be any interest if I bring it to Newbie Night
before I chuck it out?
