Since this is a bad time of year to set something new up, we will go
with what works. This is an occasional situation.
We're going to try the Myth demo again. We'll be at my church, I've
already reserved the room (see below).
1) We have a projector and screen in the room, so if the promised
monitor doesn't make it we're covered. This will be the monitor.
2) I have a borrowed wireless AP (11b). Works if someone has a patch
cable in their laptop bag. For experimentation - don't laugh, best I
could do. If you want 11g, bring one.
3) There are pop, snack, and hot chocolate machines downstairs.
However, be warned! <<NO FOOD OR DRINK IS ALLOWED ANYWHERE NEAR THE
COMPUTERS!!>> Position yourself in the room accordingly. Spillage will
be punished by 50 lashes with a virtual wet noodle.
Time info.
Tuesday, January 8, 2008
6:30 PM to 8:00 PM
Location info.
First Presbyterian Church
1702 Iowa St.
Davenport, IA
I've checked Google Maps. Type in the search box "1702 iowa st
davenport, ia". That should give you the street layout. If you need more
detail of the church and parking lot, click on the "Satellite" tab in
the upper right corner of the map. Zoom in to your heart's content
Parking is off Iowa St. on the North side of the bldg. The entrance is
on Iowa St. just South of the lot (double red doors).
Enter bldg. (you will have to open door yourself - no auto open)
Go down short flight of stairs. Go straight ahead.
Pass water cooler to elevator (on your left).
Push the "Up" call button. Get in elevator when the door opens. Push
button labeled "3".
When get to 3rd floor and door opens, get out of elevator.
Turn left, go to open door on your right (look for orange cones on floor).
Success. You have arrived.
I hope these directions are complete enough so nobody gets lost. If you
do, ask people you see until you find someone who knows enough to direct
you.
NOTE! I would like to show our guest a 3D desktop and Xen and Wine, if
anybody has those running.
See you there,
Jim
PS: For those who didn't get it, the directions are supposed to be
humor, though complete and accurate.
