The meeting is free and open to the public. Preregistration is not required to attend. The November meeting will feature timely presentations to help you with your holiday shopping chores. Geof Goodrum will review a number of websites to help you find the best quality items at the lowest possible prices. Geof will also review web sites that can help you make wise charitable giving choices. Bill Walsh will continue with an introduction to buying items on eBay, including some basic information about creating an account, searching for items, and bidding, as well as the all-important tips on what you need to look for to make the transaction a success. Many eBay articles are not old, used items. The selling community includes many businesses that use eBay to sell factory-new products. You can search by keyword match or category, and can even create and save searches that eBay checks daily, sending you e-mails when a matching item goes up for sale. Learn 30 Session: Also during the November meeting, Neal Grotenstein will discuss and demonstrate how to setup and use Administrative and User accounts on the Microsoft Windows operating system. User accounts can protect you against undesirable software that can steal your personal information and slow down your PC.
