Mac presentation focus of next meeting

I hope the following announcement will not cause too many Good Booters to spill their morning coffee.

Dwayne Alton will be hosting a “See Why People are Making the Move to Mac” presentation at our March User Group meeting.

Last month Dwayne hosted a Windows 7 presentation to over 100 enthusiastic Windows Users. So I thought in the spirit of the equal-time rule our User Group should offer a bit about Macs.

After all if Steve Job had not refused to allow Apple computers to be cloned, today all of us would probably be using Macs. And now that the Apple has named its Mac operating system “Leopard”, those of us who were a bit suspicious about computers named after fruit, no longer have to be concerned.

Mac’s Leopard operating system provides the option of installing Windows and running any Windows application without having to forego any of the extraordinary features offered by Mac. All that’s needed is a copy of Windows and Leopard’s Boot Camp. 

Boot Camp supports the most popular 32-bit releases of Windows XP and Vista. And because they have full access to multiple processors and multiple cores, accelerated 3D graphics and high-speed connections like USB, FireWire, Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet, Windows applications will run at their native speed.

Dwayne will present and demonstrate all the significant Mac features, their pros and cons and answer any questions you may have. Everything you need to know to make an informative choice if you’re in the market for a new computer. 

The User Group meeting is March 5th (a week earlier than usual), 6:00 PM at Lee Memorial Hospital Auditorium, Cleveland Ave. It’s free and open to the public.
