[DM-MUG] First Time Attendee... I'll Be Back!!

[Ray Bowler]

Glad we had you with us, We enjoyed your participation. I had to use a  
Windows machine at work so I was stuck with it. Then I used a Mac and  
Excel to create a spreadsheet for the church. I then and there decided  
that When I retired the Windoze machine was gone and I would get a Mac.
did that in 97 and haven't regretted it.

On 5th street there is street parking--just check the signs.

See you next month.
