The Monticello
Computer Group was formed in October '96 and has attracted an
attendance which varies from about a dozen to thirty persons. Local
representatives from four businesses which provide service
to computer users are usually present: Economical Computer Systems, FutureNet Systems, P & D Computing
and Xtreme PCS. Other members range in expertise from "Just
getting started..." to "up-graders," an ISP and professionals
earning a living in the computer field. We are all age levels
and all expertise levels.
The meeting dates have to the third Monday of each month at the Jefferson
County Extension Office, located right behind the post office, in Monticello, Florida.
This page, like our
group, is currently under construction.
Meetings are free and open to
everyone the third Monday night of each month from 7:30 to 9:30 PM at the Agricultural Extension Office just behind the post office. Watch this spot for the dates!
People who have attended our meetings have expressed interest in the following aspects of life-with-a-computer:
CD ROMS | DATA BASES |
DESKTOP PUBLISHING | GAMES |
GENERAL OPERATING KNOWLEDGE | HARDWARE |
INTERNET | MODEMS |
MULTI-MEDIA CONNECTIVITY | PC'S: BUILDING, INSTALLING & MAINTAINING |
SOFTWARE | SPREADSHEETS |
UPGRADES | UTILITIES: BACK-UP; FILE MAINTENANCE |
WEB PAGE CONSTRUCTION | WINDOWS 3.1 |
WINDOWS 95 | WINDOWS NT |
3-D MODELING | COMPUTER GENERATED ANIMATION |
Based upon expressed wishes
of participants, the Group plans to offer something for everyone at
each meeting. For example: 1) Hands-on computer experience in the
Computer Lab, 2) Video presentations, 3) Instructions for specific
applications, 4) Group discussions and 5) Opportunities for sharing
tips and problem-solving.
It is a good idea to bring a few formatted floppy disks
to our meetings. Some of the members have and are willing to
share legally shareable shareware
that they have found useful and/or entertaining.
Anyone having an interest in PC-type computers
is encouraged to attend our meetings.
