Re: [PLUG] New location for PLUG West meetings...


Walt,

Sorry for the delay...  I wanted to got there in person to check
on some things (and eat a hoagie!).

Good catch!  No, they do not have a projector.

I tested their WiFi today.  20MB down, 5MB up, so plenty fast.
It's a Comcast connection, with most ports open.  I was able
to ping, ssh, smtp, pop, and http.

So, what do we do about the projector?  Any interest in taking
up a collection for PLUG to own one?  Or does anyone have one
we can use?

If FIS is not available for a few months, I have a new place to suggest.

John's Pizza on US 30 in Frazer, right near the US 202 interchange.
It's just a couple of miles from FIS, two exits south on 202, and just
as easy on/off 202 as FIS.

They have a meeting room that holds 15-20 people at least, that
they will allow us to use for free, as long as some/all of us are
buying food or drinks.  Not a problem for me since I think their
cheesesteaks and hoagies are absolutely the best in the world.
Also, their pizzas are very good.  They supply 20+ pizzas every
month to the local Java User Group, delivering them to that group's
meeting room in KoP, and everyone raves about the food.

They also have free WiFi access.

I talked to Chris (the owner, who recently bought the business
from John, his dad) tonight, and he'd be happy to reserve the
room for us on the 3rd Monday of every month.

Thoughts?
