For Your Enjoyment:
Someone at the meeting jokingly referenced Bill Gates’ Windows 98 demo (that crashed) at the Comdex Spring 1998 Convention. I found the video on YouTube…very funny, make sure your sound is on. Check it out here!
Next Meeting:
At our November 7 meeting, Brad from Universal Information Systems, a local tech vendor, will be there to give us a Windows Vista demo. Everyone keep your fingers crossed!
The meeting is, as usual, from 8 am – 9:30 am. We will be meeting at Achieva once again.
