The next meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG)
will be this coming Saturday, July 15, 2000 at 9:00 AM PDT, at
Eastside Christian Schools (Heritage Campus) in Anaheim.

DSL Extravaganza! (postponed from an earlier date)

If you don't have it now, you'll want it soon!  That is, fast,
cost-effective Internet access.  End the World Wide Wait!  Verizon
(formerly known as GTE) is one of the big xDSL providers locally, and
they'll have one of their specialists, Lisa Moreo, at our meeting to
tell us everything we always wanted to know about xDSL, what DSL
services Verizon provides, and answer SCOUG questions.

As you may know, former SCOUG Vice-President Paul Wirtz assisted GTE
in its pioneering DSL development efforts.  And while Verizon doesn't
offically support OS/2, DSL configuration under OS/2 will be the
target of Saturday's presentation.

This presentation, by popular demand, is not to be missed!

After that, we'll have Q&A, a raffle, and two of our SIGs will meet
after a short break:

General Interest Group: We will continue where we left off last month
and re-install both GhostView and GhostScript using the new version 3
of GhostView, and demonstrate some cool PostScript printing with
these fine free tools.  Depending on availability, we will also see
about doing some fun Internet searching under DSL, and/or some tips
on using Clearlook.

Programming SIG: Will continue with our "Adopt-an-App" project.  We
have 2 candidates available for adoption, so come and give an App a
good home.
 
Help Desk chats now happen on Wednesday evenings at 7 PM PDT.  If
you've got a problem with hardware or software, join the chat and ask
for help.For further info, go to:

Monday, July 17, 7 PM PDT meeting:

The OS/2 Help Desk meets live and in-person at Eastside Christian
High School (Heritage Campus).  At the Help Desk, volunteers will
give you hands-on assistance solving your hardware and software
problems.  Bring your system and all related hardware and software,
along with a detailed description of your problem.

The Networking SIG and Sundial SIG are both on vacation in July.

Mark your calendars!  SCOUG Picnic/Barbecue in the works for August
19! At our August meeting, instead of our usual SIG meetings, we are
planning to have a SCOUG Picnic/Barbecue.  More details later.


How to get to Eastside Christian Schools (Heritage Campus):

The Eastside Christian School (Heritage Campus) in Anaheim is at 2528
W. La Palma Ave.  It is on the south side of the street (about 200
ft. E of Magnolia) on the Grace Baptist Church property.  It's a
2-story office building close to La Palma Ave. with the address of
2528 up near the roof.  (It's between 2 large apartment complexes and
can be easily missed).  Look for the SCOUG banner (if you are driving
eastbound on La Palma Ave.) and/or a sign with the words "New Hope
Christian Center". Turn in (south) there.  Park in the front lot. 
For the general meeting, go up the stairs in the middle of the
building along the parking-lot side. For the Help Desk, go in at the
middle on the ground floor and down the hall to your right.

Freeway exits: (subject to change due to freeway construction on I-5
and the 91 freeways):
1) North I-5 (from central/south Orange County): the Brookhurst/La
Palma
   exit has re-opened.  Get off at Brookhurst/La Palma and turn left
   (going west over I-5).  The school/church will be on your left
side.
2) South I-5 (from Los Angeles): take the Magnolia exit and turn
right
   going south.  Turn left on La Palma Ave; the school/church will be
   on your right side.
3) West 91 freeway (from the Inland Empire, etc): take the Magnolia
   exit and turn left going south.  Turn left on La Palma Ave; the
   school/church will be on your right side.
4) East 91 freeway: take the transition to I-5 south.  Stay to your
   right and take the Magnolia exit.  Turn right going south.  Turn
   left on La Palma Ave; the school/church will be on your right
side.
