MAC OS X TIPS
For additional tips regarding your OS X operating system or your applications, try http://macosxtips.co.uk  This site has a number of tips for Mac, thus its name Mac OS X Tips. It is in the UK, so some of the spellings may seem a little strange.


DUES DUE
As usual, the new year triggers the annual plea for past members to renew their memberships and wannabe members to take the plunge. Your membership dues to the Joslyn Center and the Computer Club first and foremost provide us with an excellent venue to conduct 30+ meetings a year and to store our assets. In addition, your dues and other contributions have enabled us to acquire the projector and, more recently, a new computer so we can present the programs and demonstrations which our members want to see.
