Mac Pro Demo

Tue, 26 Sep 2006 09:07:58 -0500

Dreux SteMarie, one of our favorite Apple employees, is bringing a brand new quad processor 3.0 GHz Xeon based MacPro workstations on campus this Friday, September 29th for a demo and show and tell. There will be both a demo of the benefits and specs of the new system and an "open floor" period for Q&A and the ability to run any program you'd like to see run (if you can bring a copy). He should have Parallels with him as well, so if you feel the need to see a windows app run, you could do that too. Everyone is invited. Koldus 111 Friday September 29th 11AM - 12:15PM
