, is the leader of the Beginner's SIG. If
you have just purchased a new computer
this SIG is for you. Jim emphasizes the
informal nature of this group. No
questions are too basic. They meet at
5:45 on the second Wednesday of each
month in order to finish before the main
meeting starts. You can attend two QCS
events in one night and save travel time. They
start with questions from the members.
Sometimes they get no further than
answering just one question. They explore
it thoroughly to better understand the
problem and solution. He always
encourages people to let him know
whatever is needed, and if you can, send
him an e-mail about it.
Jim's goal is to get the beginning
computer user off to an enjoyable start.
He advises his SIG not to purchase
software right away. They explore the
many free software packages out there to
try. After you become familiar with them,
you will be able to make more informed
choices if you then wish to purchase
software. Jim's goal is to show people
how to save money and have fun computing.
