You are invited to the next meeting of the Washington Area Computer User 
Group (WAC), scheduled on Saturday, February 23rd from 12:30 PM to 3:30 
PM at the Fairfax County Government Center, 12000 Government Center 
Parkway, Fairfax, Virginia. The meeting is free and open to the public.  
Preregistration is not required to attend.

WAC member Bill Walsh will demonstrate the features of DeLorme Street 
Atlas USA 2008 presentation. Bill plans to run through the best features 
of the software; point-to-point routing, location of points of interest, 
GPS realtime location and logging, voice command and response, map 
editing and printing, etc.

Along with the software, Bill will demonstrate one of the newer 
self-contained GPS units that are starting to take over the market. 
These small mobile and handheld units are experiencing a convergence of 
capability, convenience, and affordability. Road maps are becoming more 
accurate, visuals and voice commands reliably guide you to your 
destination, and, increasingly important, searchable points of interest 
are included that help you find many places of commerce and convenience.

Also during this meeting, WAC members Geof Goodrum and Bob Rott will 
once again regale us with a recap of their visit to the annual meeting 
of the Association of Personal Computer User Groups (APCUG), and the 
wonders of the Consumer Electronics Show, held in Las Vegas in January.

WAC is a non-profit general interest computer user group that supports 
the Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux operating systems. For more 
information, visit our web site at http://www.wacug.org/ or e-mail info
