===========================Mike, I may have the perfect solution for 
you. A computer group which I've been affiliated with (one of the 
oldest micro-computer groups in the area) named I-hug recently 
disbanded and gave up its site. Their meetings were  on the first 
Thursday evening of the month at Graphicsink, it's located in Durham 
fairly close to Tri-lug's regular meeting site as well. The owner is a 
close friend of mine, who is now on a short cruise in the tropics and 
he would have to approve this.  Graphicsink is one of  Galaxo's and 
several other RTP corporations' graphics experts and printers. 
Incidentally, the owner is a mac fanatic, but he also uses  Linux 
servers in his company. They have several comfortable rooms with high 
speed DSL connections, tables and chairs, as well as some teaching 
aides such as wipe off boards. If you think this might be useful to 
consider, just send me an email at alfjon at mindspring.com if you think 
this might be useful. It also might be possible to use this site at 
other times, but before I can ask I would need to know what you prefer.
