Combined MacWaves and MacFundamentals meetings:

MacFundamentals meetings are rejoining the main MacWaves meeting, starting January 2009. The reasons are as follows: Lee Maxwell is not available on Wednesday evenings, the HTHS was not available for nearly half the Wednesday meetings, and several members had requested daytime meetings -- so the meeting location, day, and time have changed.
Location: Brookdale Community College - Room ATeC 102 (ATeC)
Day & time: 2nd Saturday of the month, 10am-noon.
We will be meeting here year round -- unless otherwise noted.
Members who bring their laptops should be able to access the internet.
Typical meeting: presentations, software updates, tutorials, Apple news, Q&A, basics, etc.

- Lake a hermit crab, MacWaves has been moving from one shell to another for the past 2 years. Now it is time to move again, as Lee and I (Bob) no longer felt welcome at the Eatontown Library. They kept springing new rules on us, like not using the AV Cart without reserving it, and the lack of Internet access made our meetings difficult to run. If we are going to have guest like Dave Marra of Apple, who will be presenting to our group in April, we must have reliable Internet access. This time we will alight in Room ATeC-102 the ATeC Building of the Brookdale Community College. We will be meeting at the same time, the 2nd Saturday of each month from 10am to noon. I'm hoping that this works out for us. On the plus side, Brookdale wants us and since we are on the main campus, and NOT the High Tech High School, we will be able to meet all year round. My concern is parking for our members who need to park close by and Internet access of all who bring their laptops. I'm assured that we will be able to tap into their network one way or another.

BRIEF HISTORY:
- Our group started in 1986. We were originally known as Desktop Connections - an Apple User group exclusive to Monmouth County.
- A few years later we joined with folks from Toms River and Brick and became MOPMUG (Monmouth/Ocean County Professional Mac User Group).
- Around 1998 we changed our name to MacWaves to better reflect the diversity of our group.
- Around late 1999, we merged with BCUG.
