If you enjoy multiplayer network games and live near
Portland, Oregon, you might be interested in the
Portland Network Gamers Group.  Send email to

     cau...@teleport.com

for additionl information.  A brief description of the 
group:

=========================================================
Schedule

       Next Meeting is on 20-21 January
       Meetings are normally held on the third weekend of each month 

Location

    Meeting rooms in motels located in southwest Portland near the 
    junction of Interstate-5 and Interstate-205.

Cost

    Currently there are no membership dues. People that attend a 
    meeting split the meeting room rental cost equally, usually $4 to
    $8 per person.

Hardware and Software Requirements

    16-bit ethernet card (NE2000 compatible) with a connection for twisted 
    pair (10Base-T) cable.  It is a good idea to get a "combo" card that also 
    has a connection for coaxial (10Base-2) cable.  The card should come with
    disket that has the IPX network drivers and object files to build network
    drivers from.  There is no reason to pay more than $35-40 for a network
    card.

    Twisted pair cable at least 25 feet long and preferably 50 feet long.  
Portland
    Radio Supply (SE Grand) and Norvac (Tualatin) are good places to buy cable
    and will cost $10-15.

    IBM-compatible PC 

Games Played

    Current favorites are:

           Descent
           Command and Conquer
           Doom, Doom II, and Heretic

           Apache
           Falcon 3.0, Hornet, and MiG-29
           Hexen
