I have had some really good feedback.
It also allowed better social interaction between members.
There was a good “buzz” in the room. Many people have told me how much they learned and  how good it was to have many people present
who could fix just about any problem presented. We will be repeating this format regularly, space permitting!

20 members attended, many bringing their Macs, including two Desktops, an iMac 20″ and a 2003  iMac G4 17″ (middle top photo )
