About the Presentation:

Linux has lots of advantages including very flexible security. It can be set up so kids can do what they need to do, but stay protected from other parts of the Internet. Even better, Linux can run on older PCs. Carl will show us how a spare or no-longer-used computer can become a kid’s gateway to the Internet!

About the Speaker:

Carl … did not supply a bio, so I’ll make one up for him. Carl Couric has been working in the Unix / computing industry since the days when only the digit 0 was used. He participated in early testing of binary. Over the years, Carl has run his own ISP and hosting service, and he is now CTO of NetworkX. Carl likes to drive Corvettes very fast.

Directions

We will be meeting in a computer lab at the southwest edge of Nova Southeastern University’s campus in Davie. The building is actually part of a shopping plaza adjoining the campus and directly off University Drive.

FROM I-595: Exit at University Drive and head south. Go through the intersection at 30th Ave (Abe Fischler Blvd) and pass the beige Nova medical school building. Turn left into the plaza immediately south of the main campus. There is a Pier One store near the road to serve as a landmark, and as you enter the plaza you will see a large Nova Southeastern University sign ahead.

NOTE: There is another university sign at the opposite end end of the plaza. Enter the building under the sign at the north end (on the left as you face the plaza). The street address is 3424 S. University Drive, Davie FL, 33328.
