Photo Contest Winners and Much More

windows-on-a-mac-photo-contest-winners-and-much-more/>
This week's MUG Event Calendar features only one vendor visit and a host
of interesting and original meeting topics.
Plenty of groups have been featuring "Running Windows On A Mac" types of
meetings, but this week one group in Washington state will get a visit
by the folks from Parallels to show them first hand how it works. Not to
be outdone, groups in Missouri, Michigan and Texas will be doing their
own examinations of the subject. (more)

<http://www.mugcenter.com/special-mac-user-group-offer-from-tune-tether/>
The folks at Tune Tether have partnered with The MUG Center to extend a
special offer to Mac User Group members...especially those with iPods.
After a hugely successful guerilla-marketing campaign at January's
Macworld Conference & Expo, Tune Tether has recently lowered their
prices to $4.95 for a single Tune Tether and $12.95 for a three-pack.
(Previously, they were $9.99 and $19.99 respectively.) Mac User Group
members can get free shipping on any quantity of Tune Tethers at the new
low price from now through April 30th by using the special Mac User
Group code. (more)

Users Group (BOSFCPUG) will be both meeting and exhibiting at the Camera
Company's 17th Annual Pro Video Show this Friday, March 9 at the Sally
Blair Ames Sports Complex in Easton MA.
BOSFCPUG has scored a booth strategically placed between Apple's and
Cannons, but will be the main attraction when they hold their meeting in
the Auditorium. The theme of the show is the transition to digital and
HD and fits in perfectly with the scheduled guests for the meeting,

Last August we introduced you to EmiratesMac, the first Mac User Group
in the United Arab Emirates, and then in September about an innovative
promotional effort they undertook.
Since then, EmiratesMac has achieved the status of a recognized Apple
User Group and their March meeting will be a month of firsts for them.
They will be hosting their first major event as a recognized group, and
also will host their very first meeting with an Apple representative. (more)
