Shreveport Mac Users Group, Broadmoor Library, Thursday, Feb. 24

Apple computers are like the Creoles: they are a distinct minority but they have had an impact that goes beyond their numbers.

S'pt-Bossier area Apple/Macintosh enthusiasts have banded together for what you might call Creole nights.

At the January meeting the group was introduced to HD video by Dallas-area
videographer/Apple Trainer/PixelCuts owner Major Lytton.

This month's speaker will be Sam Denison with Time-Warner Cable Shreveport. In addition to being a Mac user, Sam is a High Speed Data Technical Support Specialist for Time-Warner Cable and its Road Runner high speed online service. He will discuss Mac cooking in the home as well as how to use your Mac as a fireplace and baseless wire station.

Meetings are held the fourth Thursday of the month, 6:30 pm, at Broadmoor Library's meeting room.

It's a pleasant, well-spoken group that could pass for a group of Oregon Mac Users, except for their accents: there are web designers, advertising types, students, videographers, engineers and other professionals. Check out the members and their profiles, see who's attending the next meeting and get acquainted with princial organizers Thomas Avallone and Colin Davidson at the SMUG site.
