I thought that Parker & Arapahoe location looked familiar...the "founder" of the newbie 2600 meeting came onto a local mailing list last year bragging about how he was starting a new group and putting down the two already-established Colorado 2600 groups even though he had never been to either meeting (the much older 303 meeting in Denver, and the now defunct 720 meeting in Boulder). He was flamed mercilessly for about 2 solid months before he left.
Honestly, if that south location is easier for people to get to, have at it. I just wanted to throw out the history of CO's 2600 meetings since your computer security friends didn't seem to know about them. But if you read old hacker zines from established groups, like CoTNO, TYM, several of the Phrack writers, attrition.org, and members of the PLA, you'll find that the vast majority of those people were here for the Saturday 2600 meetings (some still are, many have moved out of state). Anyone who tells you the scene is being represented at Parker & Arapahoe is mistaken. :)
