From: Keith on 4 Mar 2010 05:55 MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT The Portland Linux/Unix Group will meet 7 PM Thursday Mar 4, 2010 at Portland State University in the Fariborz Maseeh College of Engineering & Computer Science Building Room FAB 86-01 (This is in the basement.) The building is on SW 4th across from SW College Street. See location H-10 on map at http://pdxLinux.org/campus_map.jpg ******************************************************************* PRESENTATION A Talk by Jeri Ellsworth (Circuit Girl) Jeri Ellsworth is a native Oregonian, born in Yamhill and raised in Dallas, Oregon. Early on she became fascinated with electronics and 8-bit computers setting the stage for her unique approach to learning. Not being challenged in school, she skipped higher education to pursue a career in car-racing and chassis fabrication. After that, she opened a chain of computer stores in Oregon and Washington. She sold those to peruse a career in chip design, which lead her to design the CommodoreOne - based upon the Commodore 64 - using reconfigurable logic and the C64 DTV 30- games-in-one joystick, selling, a quarter million units. She currently works as an Oregon based consultant. I'm not sure what Jeri is going to speak about yet, but judging the talk she gave at Sanford, it should be very good indeed. See a video of her Sanford talk at: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1053309060448851979# Also, see her webs sites at: http://www.jeriellsworth.com/ and http://www.fatmanandcircuitgirl.com/ Note: Jeri was originally scheduled to give this talk last month, but it didn't happen due to unexpected illess. Thus, we have reschedule her for March. ******************************************************************* -- Best Regards, Keith http://home.comcast.net/~kilowattradio/ Tired of Google Groups? http://home.comcast.net/~kilowattradio/usenet.html
