Even more clearer and far more clarificationer post

The presentation for Jan. 10th will be Mr. Lewallen on Storage Area Networks for sure. Of course, we will not shoot video of that presentation since his company uses methods that would not be wise to broadcast. SO SHOW UP.

However, on the 24th, I, by the power vested in me as the Puba Emeritus, hereby cancel the presentation. First of all, I think I need more time to con, er, convince the Linux Journal people that they need to do a presentation for us (Rick has connections on that, of which I'll avail myself) and second, there's a conflict with an event at the University of Houston...

Tech Fest is something on which I'll have more announcements as we approach the 24th, particularly since at least one of our members is working it and a few more of us plan on attending.

NEWS FLASH: Allan has said that I can publish this: the schedule for the Hal-PC Linux Gaming Night is now every Sat. from 5pm to midnight. That's what he said. Now I, the anti-gaming diehard, must close and start up Urban Terror and go get killed some more before my 5:30 appointment.

Clarificational Clarification

OK, gang, the next two Saturday meetings will be as follows:

Jan. 10, 2pm - Dave Llewallen on Storage Area Networks
Jan. 24, 2pm - Pete Jamison (and maybe a surprise guest) on Linux Journal

As always, the program will be preceded by our continuing feature, the "Favorite Flag", introducing new, evolving or unusual uses for common commands.

Yet Another New Year!

And another couple of HLUG programs for this month, namely on Jan. 10th and 24. I have two topics: Mr. Lewallen from that big ol' contractor operation down south has a few things to say about his recent Storage Area Network project (he's a SAN architect in all but name) and I'll be doing one about Linux Journal.

Oh - I forgot to mention which would be on the 10th and which on the 24th... I'll know tomorrow. I'll take whichever date Mr. Lewallen leaves, so as to make scheduling easier on him.

I'm posting on Tuesday, and the first Tue. of the month yet. That means that Sibley Cooley's "Linux 101" will be tonight at 7pm at the Hal-PC office.

And the Hal gaming SIG? Perhaps Saturday at 5pm - I'll check with Allan on that. I've been practicing getting killed... (games of choice are Urban Terror and Unreal Tournament 2004 since they've been ported to Linux for awhile) - and I will NOT mention my online game names since you may object to my obnoxious tactics.
