This week on the MUG Event Calendar we find an Apple presentation, two
big events, several Adobe-oriented meetings and more.
Apple's Dave Marra will present in New Jersey, a Final Cut Pro SuperMeet
will be held in Las Vegas at NAB, and MacCamp will celebrate 44
iterations in Oregon.
One of the biggest software announcements in recent memory was Adobe's
release of the Creative Suite 3, and Mac User Groups have wasted no time
in incorporating it into their meeting topics. There will be a
presentation by an Adobe certified trainer in London and CS3-themed
meetings in Texas, Oregon and Alaska. (more)
