**William Lindley: 75 Years of Computing in 60 Minutes*
The roots of modern digital computing go back nearly two hundred years, 
and through a series of pass-around artifacts from the past century, we 
will explore how the pioneers of the field and their groundbreaking 
decisions and technologies have led us -- for better or worse -- to 
today's Internet-enabled world.

*About William*
Mr. Lindley has been in the computer industry since he sold his first 
program (a printer driver for Heathkit HDOS) in 1980. He has used system 
from the earliest 8-bit microprocessors, through the PDP-11 and VAX, up 
to IBM mainframes, and has managed to write programs that did not crash 
on most of them. Mr. Lindley has been a GNU/Linux user since 1992 and 
has been free of proprietary software since 2001. Most recently he has 
been pleased to be an adjunct professor at Mesa Community College.


------------------------------------------------------------------------

The meeting will start at 7pm at The Desert Breeze Substation.  People 
start arriving as early as 6pm, so if you would like to help setup 
and/or chat for a while, arrive a little early.
*Meeting Location*:
Desert Breeze Substation
251 North Desert Breeze Blvd West
Chandler, AZ 85226

The Desert Breeze Substation is on Chandler Blvd and Desert Breeze Blvd, 
which is half way between McClintock and Rural.  It is very close to 
both the south 202 and 101 freeways.  Public transportation is
available into the late hours.

We will go for food (usually to BJs at the Chandler Fashion Center Mall) 
after the meeting so we can chat with each other comfortably. Please

not mandatory.

See you there,
Brian Cluff
