I'm wondering if any of the local Apple/Mac user groups are planning on picking up this satellite feed from Apple. I had to travel to Madison last year because no-one in the Milwaukee area could organize anything. I know that Double-Click meets at UWM. Is it possible that UWM might have a facility available for such an event? Several people from the WAUC user group would be interested in attending if someone can come up with a site with a dish. I've tacked the release from Apple, Inc. onto the end of this post. I've also got specific satellite information available if anyone is interested. Thanks, Ron acct069@carroll1.cc.edu carroll1!acct069@uwm.edu **************************************** UG-TV Only 27 Days left... before the second National UG-TV Broadcast scheduled for Wednesday evening, October 28, 1992, 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time, 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time. To give you an idea of who and what you will see on the show, Ray Kaupp, Manager of the UGC, and I will be talking with the World Wide Product Managers from the following product groups: System Software, Desktop Products, Consumer Products, and Portable Products. Each product segment will end with a Q&A from around the country via an 800 number which will be displayed on the screen during the broadcast. There will be additional segments on Apple II, Newton, video clips, and a raffle. As you look for a site to view the broadcast, don't forget your local cable TV company. Last year we had a number of cable companies broadcast the show live on their local community access cable channels in California, Oregon, Arizona, and Virginia to name just a few. It might just take a quick phone call from you for UG-TV to be shown on cable in your town. Satellite downlink sites are readily available if cable isn't an option. Attached are the technical details a Broadcast Site Coordinator will need to locate a downlink site for your User Group. I also want to add that both of these options are VERY easy to do! So get out there and find a downlink site and be part of the Nationwide Apple User Group meeting. For further UG-TV details look on the User Group Connection bulletin board on AppleLink and America Online or send us a message via AppleLink: User .Groups or AOL: Apple UGC. You can also give me a call at (408) 974-3180. Regards, Rye Livingston User Group Connection ***************************** -- Ron | Lightning Systems, INC. | Apple // Forever! acct069@carroll1.cc.edu | (414) 363-4282 62megs | Van Halen Rules! carroll1!acct069@uwm.edu | 14.4k HST/V.32bis | Bill & Ted are cool!
