Computer Essentials SIG

The Computer Essentials SIG (special interest group) will introduce you to the world of computing. You’ll learn to sit, crawl, stand, walk, and run a computer with confidence. You’ll start at the beginning, continue until you reach the end, and, then, stop.

Each monthly session will introduce the essentials of using a computer. Over the course of our meetings, you’ll learn the correct way to use a mouse and keyboard, text editing, word processing, file management, anti-virus scanners, spreadsheets, taking care of you computer, fonts, web browsing, newsgroups (UseNet), printing, scanning, file formats, and much more.

Please e-mail computeressentialssig@noccc.org if you plan to attend. Please include a little information about yourself, such as your computer experience, what kind of computer you use, what operating system you use, and any other information that might be of interest to you. Tell your friends, too!

For further information see the
Computer Essentials SIG Announcement.

General Meetings

New Technology (9:30 a.m. in Irvine Auditorium): Intel vs. AMD Microprocessor Technology
The next generation microprocessors are coming. There are useful new features and a lot of hype. We'll take a look.
Presented by Herbert Wong, Jr., NOCCC Hardware SIG Leader.
Presentation coordinator: George Margolin (inventor@pobox.com)

Main Meeting (1:00 p.m. in Irvine Auditorium): Carey Holzman
Carey Holzman's presentations are not what you might be used to. Carey likes to get the audience involved, rather than read from a scripted Powerpoint presentation with the lights off. He prefers to customize each presentation based on the interest of the group he is speaking with. As a result, you never know quite what to expect and two presentations are never the same. His book, The Healthy PC, is full of advice on keeping your PC running well.
