Open Discussion Night
This is the night you have been waiting for; the chance to present your latest accomplishments to the assembled group. Feel free to bring along the latest hardware you have built and show off your handiwork to the crowd. Or just bring pictures of your hardware (on a USB flash drive) and describe it to us.
Have a problem or a question? Present the conundrum to the group and test the collective intelligence (?) of the gurus. If it's about computer hardware, this is the place to be.
What Hank Will Talk About
Hank Skawinski, Owner/Manager, Datawise
Yes, that topic is flippant, but it's also true, because regardless of what's up there, Hank will talk about what Hank will talk about - knowledgably and in detail. It's likely to be about the latest things he's learned, and be based on his day-to-day experience dealing with the problems of maintaining, building, and using computers and related devices. He'll likely have something to say about Microsoft, about Linux, about some new product that's grabbed his fancy, and about something that's peeved him that shouldn't have.
Microsoft Office 2010 Suite
Kevin Lynn and Don Heinsen

Comparisons of the different versions of Office, and their recommendation of the most cost-effective versions will be discussed. Kevin Lynn and Don Heinsen will demonstrate the new features of Office 2010, with powerpoint presentation and hands-on examples of many of the features of Office 2010 Professional 2010.
