Charter Telephone reviews, boylston?

by John Stoffel

Hi, Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky all the time, esp when it rains. So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter. I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet another set top box to have to deal with... So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service? Thanks, John

Great meeting last night!

by Tim Keller

To everybody who attended last night, thanks! Maddog educated and entertained us with the Linaro and Cacu projects and regaled us with lots of humorous computer history. Jon, thanks for being a great presenter! You're welcome back to speak anytime! Next up Andy will be giving a talk in January about Mesh networking. If anybody has a topic they'd like to speak about or something they're interested in learning about, let me know! Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

After the meeting

by Richard Klein

Have we come up with a way to split the pizza bill on credit cards or should I still plan on getting cash? Not a big deal, but I thought I'd ask. -- Rich

Tonight's meeting

by Jon "maddog" Hall

Hello, I am the speaker for tonight's meeting. Even though the weather has been bad for three days, it seems to be clearing for tonight, and I just wanted to make sure that there would be a meeting tonight. The topics for tonight are two: Title: GNU/Linux Performance: We are not in 1969 (or even 1984) anymore Abstract: Performance in software is not just how fast it executes in wall clock time, but how efficient it is in memory and CPU cycles. It determines battery life, how "green" a solution can be, and even if a particular solution is fast enough for "real time". This talk will examine these areas, show progress of software and hardware over time, demonstrate someHello, I am the speaker for tonight's meeting.

Project Caua will show you how to make enough money in your spare time so you can afford to go to university. If, for any reason, the meeting is canceled I would appreciate an email before 1500 today. Thanks, Jon "maddog" Hallnt it is in memory and CPU cycles.

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody, There's a meeting scheduled for Wednesday at 7pm rm 331. Be there or get your geek cards revoked! I know there's inclement weather predicted for Tuesday, so it should be all clear by Wednesday night. However if things change and it looks like the roads will be a mess, we'll reassess. Unless the plans change, Jon "maddog" Hall will be giving a talk! Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
