=======================================================================
January   Wednesday the 20th, 7-9 pm
General   Room 208, Goodrich C. White Hall
Meeting   Emory University Campus
1993
          * At 7 pm sharp, we start our program with the popular open
            forum (an open question and answer session).  If you've got
            a question about the Macintosh, software for the Mac, or a
            connectivity issue, come ask the experts.  In all likelihood
            one of the meeting attendees can either directly answer your
            question or knows where to find the answer.
          * At 7:20 pm, Microsoft Corporation takes the stage with a
            demonstration of Excel.  Excel (first created for the Macintosh
            in 1984 and winner of every major software industry award) is the
            most popular spreadsheet for the Macintosh.  The latest version
            of Excel (version 4.0) continues to build on this highly-
            acclaimed spreadsheet tradition by adding such features as
            Drag and Drop, a customizable toolbar, the "what if" Scenario
            Manager, System 7 Publish and Subscribe, and data consolidation
            from multiple worksheets (regardless of formatting or data
            location).  Microsoft Exel is cross-platform compatible; products
            for the Macintosh and for Windows share the same file formats,
            macros, keystrokes, and commands.
          * At 8 pm, we take a break for announcements and other AMUG
            business matters.
          * At 8:20, Microsoft returns with a demonstration of PowerPoint.
            The latest version of Microsoft PowerPoint (version 3.0)
            incorporates everything needed to create successful presentations
            all integrated in one easy-to-use product.  PowerPoint is the
            only presentation graphics product to concentrate on ideas first,
            then the presentation.  The user can either develop thoughts
            right on the slides or work out the entire presentation in the
            Outline view.  After the basics are constructed, greater clarity
            and impact can be added to the message by applying templates,
            diagrams, graphs, clip art, dizzling color, and more.  With
            PowerPoint it's easy to produce high-quality 35mm slides,
            overheads, speaker's notes, audience handouts, and even an
            electronic slide show.
          * At 9:00 pm, we'll have a raffle for door prizes.
            Come early to get a good seat.
