Meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month in
Community Hall (1910 S. Pebble Beach Blvd.), and they start
on time at 7:30 p.m. We encourage folks to come early and chat with one of our
member-gurus about their latest computer "challenge."
Programs usually consist of presentations from national and local
software vendors. Following the presentation there is normally a question and answer
period followed by an opportunity to meet and talk with the speaker on an individual
basis.
Due to the size of our club, we have been able to attract many of
the major software and service companies to demonstrate their latest offerings. Recent
vendors have included Microsoft, McAfee, PowerQuest, Quicken and Corel, and meetings
usually conclude with a raffle of software and hardware products donated by the vendor.
The Computer Club owns the latest type of presentation equipment
needed to project computer images on to a large screen ensuring that everyone can view
vendor and member demonstrations. |
