This is a little weird --- writing to you about the monthly meeting before the workshop. It’s sort of like the oversized moon event from this past weekend. It only happens once every few years. Having said that.....
Join your fellow Apple enthusiasts and friends at the May 15th General Meeting for a lively presentation by our own Pete Lozzi. His subject is “Defining the Cloud.” Another MacNexus night you won't want to miss!
Sez Pete: "The cloud is in your future. Whether you've fully embraced it already, or are curious to know how it affects you, the cloud has an impact on each of us today. Join me for a simple (unclouded) approach to this cloud and allow me to simplify how you can and should be taking advantage of this technology on your Mac, PC and mobile devices.”
Plus we'll have Apple Rumors with RockyTheActor, Volunteer Announcements, Tech Help and, keeping with tradition, lots of cookies! The meeting will be held at the Sacramento Association of Realtors auditorium, 2003 Howe Ave, Sacramento, at 7:00 - 9:00 pm. This is part way between Alta Arden Way and El Camino Ave and across the street from Home Depot. Directions are available at our website. Please come and join us! |

At the Crest Theatre - 1013 K Street Friday, May 11, 2012 - Thursday, May 17, 2012
In 1995, during the making of his TV series Triumph of the Nerds about the birth of the personal computer, Bob Cringely did a memorable hour-long interview with Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who died in October, 2011. The film was shot 10 years after Jobs had left Apple following a bruising struggle with John Sculley, the CEO he brought into Apple. At the time of the interview Jobs was running Next, the niche computer company he had founded after leaving Apple and would later sell to his old company, enabling Jobs return to his Apple roots.
During the interview, Jobs was at his charismatic best – witty, outspoken and visionary – already anticipating the digital future that one day he would do so much to make possible. In the end, only a part of the interview was used in the series and the rest was thought lost. But recently a VHS copy was found in the series director’s garage. Cleaned up with modern technology and put into context by Cringely, this is a unique and very candid interview that reveals as never before the burning passion of Steve Jobs, a passion that would go on to give us the iMac, the iPod, iPhone and iPad.
As he says in the interview, Jobs took the best and spread it around 'so that everybody grows up with better things.'
