The Linux@LAX User's Group will next meet on: Saturday, May 10, 2008 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM NO APRIL MEETING at Gorilla Nation DUE TO HOST ISSUES!!!! However we had a great talk in the form of a SkypeCast . Topic: An introduction to using Linux for Home Automation. Simple-to-use software and hardware components are readily available, at low cost, to automatically control systems and appliances in the home to provide comfort, security, and more. The speaker will discuss the technology, standards, products, options, and how to get started in automating your home with Linux. Bio: Neil Cherry has been working with computers, computer electronics, and software since 1978. He has been playing with X10 since 1982. He began automating his home in 1992 when a friend gave him an X10 computer interface, and he started the Linux Home Automation Web site (www.linuxha.com) in 1996. When he’s not riding his bicycle or playing with home automation, he works for AT&T Research Lab South, Middletown, NJ, as a Test Engineer. You can reach him by e-mail at
