You are invited to the next meeting of the Washington Area Computer User 
Group (WAC), scheduled on Saturday, July 21st 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.

The July meeting will feature a demonstration of the Sony 
PlayStation(r)3 (PS3) system. While the PS3 is the most advanced game 
console available, often overlooked is its capabilities as a media 
center and personal computer. The demonstration will include High 
Definition video games including Sony's Motorstorm off-road racing and 
Ubisoft's Blazing Angels World War II squadron flying, as well as 
PlayStation 2 and PSOne games to show compatibility with earlier 
generations. The PS3 is also designed to browse the Internet, play and 
manage your music collection, display digital photos and play video 
(including DVDs and high-definition movies on Blu-ray Disc(tm)). The 
demonstration will also show how the PS3 can be used as a full-featured 
personal computer with Operating Systems such as Terra Soft Solutions 
Yellow Dog(tm) Linux v5.0.2.

WACUG is a non-profit general interest computer user group that supports 
the Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux operating systems. For more
