(...) I'd have to agree-- $75 is less than we 'paid' before, and I certainly have no problem paying for a room... Does it come with chairs or desks or anything? Or do you know what size it is roughly? Just asking 'cuz I remember reading that COLUG's (...) (24 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) I've got a 6'x3' table that you can borrow indefinitely (it's even in the basement not being used at the moment :-) if you want...
