Real Computer Help in Plain English - Really!!
by Doris Collins September 2006
Have you ever found yourself wanting to pull out your hair or, better
yet, throw your computer down a flight of stairs? Have
you
ever been so completely frustrated over a computer problem that you
think there's no solution other than an expensive trip to the repair
shop? WRONG! Did you know that competent help is as close as your
computer (if it still works), or your telephone? Did you know that
this help is in plain English, not "computerese"? Did you know this
help is free?
The Computer Club of Oklahoma City is anxiously looking forward to
their September 21st meeting wherein Jen Clausen will have a
presentation on behalf of Sandhills Publishing.
The presentation, aiming to educate attendees about Sandhills
Publishing’s magazines and the Smart Computing User Group Program,
will step members through an issue of Smart Computing, convey the
value of SmartComputing.com through a live demonstration, and
introduce attendees to Smart Computing’s sister publications - PC
Today, Computer Power User, and the Reference Series. Each attendee
will receive a packet of Smart Computing goodies and be eligible to
win other Smart Computing merchandise. We invite anyone interested in
expanding their computer knowledge to attend the Computer Club of
Oklahoma City meeting.
In
addition to the goodie bags and door prizes to be distributed by
Sandhills Publications, the Computer Club of Oklahoma City has two
door prizes to give to its members, and two for visitors. For the
members this month we have an internal PCI TV Tuner with Wireless
Remote, which allows you to watch TV on your computer, and a copy of
interVideo's iVideoToGo - take movies to go with your iPod. For one of
our visitors, we will be offering a one-year free membership to the
Computer Club of Oklahoma City, and to another visitor will go a
package of blank CD-RW's in jewel cases.
The General Meeting of the Computer Club of Oklahoma City is on the
3rd Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm. The meeting is held at 3000
United Founders Blvd. Suite 201, Oklahoma City, OK. (This address is
NOT in the United Founders Tower.) Coffee and light refreshments will
be served.
Join us at 7:00 pm on September 21st.
