Meeting Announcement
Date - 2nd Tuesday of the month
Time - from 6 PM until 7:30 PM

Note - meetings begin promptly at 6 PM. When pizza sponsors are available,
we will get a head count of those that wish to enjoy a pizza dinner and take
a dinner break when the pizza arrives. Folks that sign the attendance sheet
after we place the order should go to the back of the dinner line.

Special Notice

Fred Donnelly has agreed to take over as president of Triangle NT Users
Group effective January 2004 and will carry the group forward into our 10th
year since we were first established.  I will introduce Fred as the new
president at our 9 Dec 2003 meeting.  Fred has stepped to the plate to help
our group in various capacities over the last year or two that I have
chaired the group.  There is no doubt that he will be a good leader.  Please
pledge your support and allow our group to continue to grow.  It has been my
great pleasure serving the group.  While I do not plan to disappear, I do
plan to focus more on growing my small business and in raising my children
since another one is on the way :-)  I appreciate having been given the
opportunity to give back to the group by service since I had learned so much
from the group over the years.  There are many more things I would have
liked to do; however, I am proud of the things that did get done and of all
the people that pitched in to help.

One of my objectives had been to bring a mix of technologies to our meetings
from a variety of disciplines.  Our upcoming meeting is the epitomy of that
mix and is sure to be a big hit.  Jason Tower is one of the areas most
talented professionals in the field and will certainly enlighten us on the
use of linux in a historically windows world.  Please join me in welcoming
Jason on Tuesday.
