Hey guys!

  Thanks for attending QMUG/LA's February General Meeting! 

  In this post-mtng msg (only being sent to people who attended the Feb
gen mtng):

    1.  Missing Center Sign-in Sheet
    2.  Presenter Appreciation Redeux
    3.  Apple's User Group Survey
    4.  Mac for sale
    5.  Sign-in Stats


  1.  Missing Center Sign-in Sheet

    After the excitement of our mtng, neither Brad nor I were able to
find the Center Sign-in Sheet to turn in.  Could you check your papers
and see if you have it?  At least 18 people were in attendance, so if
the sheet has at least 12 people on it, could you pls fax it to the
Center at (213) 461-5721.  If the sheet is lost, no big loss -- no
one's name or number or other identifiable information was on it.


  2.  Presenter Appreciation Redeux

    Brad and I want to thank our presenters again;  making a presenta-
tion is not easy, and we think that this mtng was a good example of how
that can be.  And special thanks again to Brad for bringing his system! 
If you still have questions about "Cruising w/ your Mac" or "IRC," then
don't hesitate to visit http://www.gay.com or http://www.irchelp.org, or
e-mail us here at QMUG/LA.


  3.  Apple's User Group Survey

    Again in all the excitement of the mtng, Brad and I weren't able to
offer time to encourage you to participate in Apple's User Group Survey
at http://www.wmotion.com:159/surveys/user_group/survey.html  If you
haven't already voted, pls do so and let your Mac be counted;  every
25th person gets an Apple t-shirt!  We'll send out one last reminder
before the 20th.


  4.  Mac for sale

    Another announcement that wasn't able to be made was that Ed is
selling his Performa 638CD 36/350 w/ TV/Video system and ClarisWorks,
Photoshop, Red Baron, etc., for $600 so he can buy a new 7100/G3.  For
more information, e-mail him at RblTrooper@aol.com or call him at (818)
891-6814.
