So does anyone just live in a big ol mansion right in the center of the
Metroplex with a huge wifi hookup? If not, we're all in the wrong profession.

Unfortunately I too would consider Frisco way out of the way. Not necessarily
due to the mileage but due to the traffic. No matter what way you slice it
getting into Frisco is pretty much limited to Preston, Coit or the DNT (this
might get better once they open the new section to 380), all of which back up
horribly at rush hour. Therefore I would consider driving into Frisco (between
4 and 7PM) a close tie for first on the fun-meter with sticking toothpicks
into your fingernail bed.
I appreciate your time looking into venues. I too found a similar location in
Dallas (Dallas Community Center) which was designed solely for group meetings,
however it was limited to government entities and 501.C3 groups. Similarly,
Dallas parks department does allow rentals of some of their recreation centers
for a small fee. This might be something to look into as well.
I am sure a solution is just around the corner.

Jeff,
Unfortunately, we are not incorporated. Sounds like good bennies though!
Personally, I would consider Frisco "way out of the way", and I live in
Carrollton. That's just me but am wiling to see what the response is.
I know that we all appreciate you looking for, and finding, a possible
location for the group.
Thanks,
Joe Kelly

If Frisco isn't too ridiculously out of the way I have a location
that seats approximately 40 with enough table space for each person
to have a laptop and a notebook. Also available are a projector and
screen screen, wi-fi, can bring your own server/router and plug in to
the network in order to broadcast the meeting or run demo sites,
climate control, food (pizza, burgers, tex-mex, sandwiches ...) and
beverage (including adult beverages) and a larger room available for
the meetings that attract a larger audience. They can also cater a
more upscale level of food if a sponsor wanted to do that for us on
occasion.
Other than location the only down side I see is that it normally
costs 50.00 per event however if this is a registered 501c3 we may be
able to make arrangements to have the room for free, and if not I
still might be able to do something about the fee but don't want to
start those wheels turning unless it's probable that this would be
where the group moved to.
If interested in travelling to Frisco let me know and we can identify
whatever hurdles exist and I can start finding solutions for them.
