Following on from his November 2013 presentation "An introduction to
computer games: Why are they important to us all?" *Andrew Pam* will
demonstrate some games and assist members to choose and install games on
their own computers. If there is interest, he may also discuss
user-created content and game development on Linux.
Andrew first discovered an interest in boolean logic when his mother
carried him in her arms at just the right height to reach light switches
as they passed through doorways. He was lucky enough to go to a school
with an obsolete PDP/8e: switches, lights, core memory, paper tape,
punched cards and all. He first started programming on a TRS-80 model 1
level I and the first computer he owned was a Commodore VIC-20. He has
run the gaming Miniconference at linux.conf.au in the past and enjoys
playing computer games on Linux systems. He is the current president of
Linux Users of Victoria.
There will also be the usual casual hands-on workshop, Linux
installation, configuration and assistance and advice. Bring your laptop
if you need help with a particular issue.
The meeting will be held at Infoxchange, 33 Elizabeth St. Richmond 3121
