Welcome aboard. The e-mail part<br>of the GRLUG is quite active, and <br>very helpful in general. Actual get<br>togethers wax and wane in frequency.<br>Several years ago meets at coffee <br>houses were done, but nothing much
<br>recently. You will usually get many<br>good suggestions for hardware and<br>software questions. <br><br>Jump in.<br><font color="#888888"><br> -Bob</font><p><DEFANGED_div><p><DEFANGED_div></p><DEFANGED_div><p><DEFANGED_div class="Wj3C7c"><br><br><br><br><p>On Nov 14, 2007 1:07 AM, Steve Romanow <
