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

location been settled on yet? 

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.
