Mac Classes - April '11

Happy April everyone! I can't believe it, it's snowing, again! Sheesh...

Since last month's request-based class schedule was marginally successful, I'm going back to picking the topics (keeping everyone's recent input in mind though). For a slightly different (but fun) approach, I've decided to do a sort of "Office Suite smackdown":

 For starters,
Saturday, April 16th, from 10 a.m. to noon,
I will be covering Apple's Numbers vs Microsoft Excel. Come learn the differences between Apple's and Microsoft's approach to the spreadsheet program.
This class carries a fee of $20.

 Then, on S
aturday, April 30th, from 10 a.m. to noon,
I will be covering Apple's Pages vs Microsoft Word. Come learn the differences between Apple's and Microsoft's approach to word processing. This class also carries a fee of $20.

***The above classes are always held in the small meeting room at Ridgway Town Hall, and are open to drop-ins, with no sign-up necessary***

Then, don't forget, there's...

 The regular
FREE "Overview of Mac OS X" class will take place on the last Wednesday of the month, April 27th from 5-7 p.m. These overview classes are held in the computer lab at the Ridgway Library. There are only eight seats available, and the Library has asked that I handle the sign ups, so give me a call at 970-417-8434 (or drop me an email) if you'd like to attend. (Be aware that first-timers take priority over anyone who has taken the class before, but there are often openings for repeaters).

There are six Macs in the computer lab, so only two of the eight attendees need their own laptops. This class is beginner-oriented, but we cover some different things every month; repeat attendees are encouraged (when there's room)!
