This was something of a gala meeting, and not to be missed! Our choral ensemble performed quite well after a slightly uncertain start. Martin laid down a live guitar backing track in Garage Band by selecting the Voice option for the track and using his MacBook Air’s internal microphone.

Nine members gathered in Solutions’ smart new shop to hear about High Sierra (Mac OS 10.13) from Tony Still.

In their determination to keep to the release schedule, it seems that High Sierra was released with a few fairly serious issues.
