You are invited to the next meeting of the Washington Area Computer (WAC) User Group, scheduled on Saturday, April 21st from 12:30 PM to 3:30 PM at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), 4210 Roberts Road, Fairfax, Virginia. The meeting is free and open to the public. Preregistration is not required to attend. Cherie Lejuenne and Ralph Sklarew will be our guest presenters in April. By now we've all been inundated by news and ads for the latest iPad, its Android competitors and buzz about the upcoming Windows 8 tablets. But for those who haven't taken the plunge, Aprilβs meeting will include a brief review of tablets and apps: What they are; How they differ from portable PCs (& smart phones); How to use them; Accessories; and Why tablets are best for you. The real action for tablets use is all about the apps so Cherie and Ralph will demonstrate some of their favorites for Communications, Entertainment, Information, Record keeping, Shopping, and "Productivity." Please bring your tablets, if you have them, and your questions, for others will benefit from your inquisitiveness. And for existing tablet users, prepare to share your favorite apps! Also in April will be a "Learn 30" tutorial with tips on how to clean your PC. You think it's dirty behind your fridge? Wait till you see the cruft that collects inside your computer! Tyvek suits and dust masks optional. Don't wear new duds to this special, hands-on session!
