Ten members attended our second meeting at Portchester Community School, including a new member - so welcome to the group.

The main topic was a run through of the Utilities folder (or directory) looking at the programs and discussing where one could use them and their contribution to the good running of OSX.

Utilities that drew extra attention and perhaps the opportunity for further investigation:

Another good turnout at Solutions and another good presentation from Mick. This time it was on the basics of iChat - the stuff we wanted to know about at the last iChat presentation but didn’t get!
