We have a special interest group devoted to computer hardware. We look at upgrades and learning how to build your own PC. We sometimes will put on a demonstration on computer software as well.
This is a smaller group than our general meeting and where possible we try to have more "hands-on" demonstrations. The subject matter, while not really advanced, is usually given at a higher level than our general meetings.
Like our general meetings, the Hardware SIG is open to the public. We do not require an additional membership or dues to participate in this activity.
In general the Hardware SIG meets at the Laguna Niguel Public Library the first Saturday of each month from 10 AM to 1 PM. The Library is located at the intersection of Crown Valley Parkway and Alicia Parkway in Laguna Niguel. Please join us.
