Pi day was celebrated with pie and cookies (thanks Brian H!). PCIG elections were as highly contested as ours, they almost couldn&#039;t twist arms hard enough to get one nominee per office.&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> Then it on to the main event, Tim and Jon presenting on Project Arcade. Slides are available [http://www.pcig.info/uploads/Reviews/pcigarcade.pdf here], and the book review is [http://www.k-lug.org/ProjectArcade here]. There was also a hands-on component, as Tim had brought in his completed coffee table style arcade and Jon had brought in his mockup box. &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Items discussed after the presentation:<br /> <br /> -The new games email list was advertised to the PCIGers present.&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> -Upcoming events&lt;br&gt;<br /> -March lunch is next week. Also, if anyone downtown can help keep an eye on restaurant openings and seating possibilities, that would be appreciated.&lt;br&gt;<br /> -April technical meeting - Tuesday April 8th - One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) by Jose de Leon&lt;br&gt;<br /> -April social - requests are solicited&lt;br&gt;<br /> -May technical meeting - Thursday May 8th - Studio Academy&#039;s robotics league, jointly with PCIG; field trip to their location. Very cool video URL will be sent out at some point in the future to whet your appetite. Also, the current plan to use some K-LUG and PCIG funds to purchase pizza and pop, so RSVPs will be requested.&lt;br&gt;<br /> -May social - hopefully by this point we&#039;ll be able to play outside on a regular basis. If you have ideas for easily organized outside activities besides frisbee golf, hable! (hable=speak up) &lt;br&gt;<br /> -We do not have any speakers scheduled for June or later months. Volunteers are requested. Willing to present but need topic ideas? See [http://www.k-lug.org/index.php?title=Meetings&amp;action=submit#Requested_topics_list this page] for topics people have requested.&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> -Brian H is interested in doing a server project as a group, using hardware he plans to obtain from NORLUG. More from him as he gets things going.<br /> <br /> -The discussed idea of giving speakers some sort of incentive was finally put to a vote, and it passed. We will now try to do ~$30 gift certificates to a place such as Amazon, NewEgg, etc for our presenters. Exactly how the incentive will work when doing a joint meeting with PCIG will get worked out. When we need to raise additional funds, I nominate Brian H. to be in charge of the bake sale subcommittee. Passing the hat will probably need to start occurring at some point.<br /> <br /> -Steve F is interested in doing more hardware projects (Make-type, etc). Interest levels, project ideas, and project leading volunteers would be appreciated.<br /> <br /> Tina</div>
