The building is actually more east and south of the star shown. =A0Just turn
in the driveway on the south side of the traffic circle with the big
fountain and you'll see the building on the right. =A0The front door is on
the east side of the building, south of the big Adtron logo up high on the
east wall.

I'll have some new O'Reilly books on programming for door prizes.
