You are invited to the next meeting of the Washington Area Computer User Group! WAC meetings are free and open to the public. WAC is a 501(c)(3) non-profit Virginia Membership Corporation dedicated to helping computer users get maximum use and enjoyment from their machines through monthly meetings, the Cursor monthly newsletter, and dissemination of freely redistributable software. WAC has Special Interest Groups (SIGs) for IBM-compatible, Amiga, and Commodore 8-bit (C64/C128) computers as well as general hardware and software support. However, members are welcome to form SIGs for other computers or related interests. Stop by and see what WAC has to offer you! If you have questions about WAC or WAC meetings, call the WAC AnswerLine (voice message system) at (703) 406-9007, 24 hours a day. WAC also has a World Wide Web page on the Internet! If you have Internet access, visit us at URL http://www.tiac.net/users/wacug/. November - Speak and Be Heard (by Your PC!) Also: Computer Emulation! Don't like typing? Uncomfortable with a mouse? If so, come to WAC's next meeting on November 15 where we'll be demonstrating voice recognition software for the PC. This software lets you control software and dictate text directly into word processors by just speaking into a microphone! We'll also be demonstrating a variety of computer emulation software. Computer emulation allows one computer to run software written for other computers. Demonstrations are planned for Amiga, Commodore, and arcade game emulations on the PC, and possibly others. Don't miss it! December Preview - Swap Meet! Start planning now to attend the WAC Swap Meet on December 6! Want to sell computer hardware, software, video games, or books that you don't need anymore? Looking for bargains or holiday gifts? Then you don't want to miss the Swap Meet! WAC provides space for the Swap Meet as a public service to any and all computer enthusiasts. There is no charge for admission, and table space is free for individuals. WAC will also have multiplayer computer and video games to play on a projection screen TV system. Bring the kids and test your skills! Visit our Web Site for more information. The latest freely distributable software for C64/C128, Amiga, and IBM-compatible computers will be available on disk for a nominal fee before the meeting (12:30 - 1:00 pm). WAC is now accepting memberships for the 1998 calendar year - still just $22!
