Meeting Location

[Smith, Mark W.]

The equipment that Rich has graciously made availabe to KC-LUG at the AMC
facility is nice in that it makes it much easier see what's happening. It
sure beats having 15 people crowding around a single PC.
Rich Minear, how big of a pain in the --- is it to tote the equipment to
another site?

The Kansas City Unix Users Group used to meet at 60th & Lamar-
specifically 6000 Lamar. It is a Johnson County facility. The
price is right, free. Whether the 1st Wed of the month is
available is questionable. As Ed Allen or Drew Rohde how they
feel. It is not terribly? far from central location. I have
contact information if you want to pursue. Big drawback? No
phone connectivity.
