Greetings All,
No, that time is not a misprint. This weeks meeting will be at 7:30pm on Thursday evening. We'll be at the Howard County Central Library (http://www.hclibrary.org/locations/central.php) as normal.
We have two major topics to discuss this week.
First is meeting time and day. Due to other obligations, the library had to move our start time back to 7:30pm. We can discuss options as to moving to another day and schedule the two hours that we had before at the same location. Another option is to move to a different location within the library system that has free time on the same evening.
The second item on deck is the presentation to the CMUG Windows group on the 21st. Joel has the OOo presentation from John so we should have a run through of the talk to work on.
We also have 10 of the Dell GX100's from the library to offer. I don't recall the speeds of the machines but I recall they are mid level Celerons with 512M RAM and 10 gig hard drives. While they are not the latest and greatest hardware, they make an excellent spare machine that Ubuntu works on well. So if anyone is interested in them the cost is a $25 tax-deductible donation to the 'Friends of Howard County Library (http://www.hclibrary.org/about/friends_hcl.php)' organization. Please email me in advance to insure they are available at meeting time for you to take home.
See you Thursday!
