We will have as many gadgets and gizmos we can get our hands on on display for your inspection and investigation from portable media players to digital cameras to e-readers and a tablet or two.

See you April 10th.

We'll go as far as we can and save the rest for later.

Don't worry, it looks worse than it really is.

This was initially a two-parter but our meeting in April falls within Library Week (Info about Library Week) so to celebrate the spirit of exposing as many people to as much information as we can the meeting will be a technology petting zoo with as many gadgets and gizmos we can gather under one roof.
So I hope to cover networking adequately this coming Tuesday and you all join us in April for a chance to play with something new. ]]>Fri, 24 Feb 2012 09:01:58 -0500http://mplcompclub.weebly.com/1/post/2012/02/new-poll.htmlWhat do you use your computer for?

Check all that apply.

The parts of a network.
Setting up the network.
Securing your network.
Making the most of your network.

This will likely be a two-parter spilling over into April.

Opinions on a two meeting topic?
How much advanced notice would you need to schedule around both?
Is a month too much time in between meetings?
