Introductions and Welcome, especially to new members
A welcome and reminder for any newcomers. We’re getting around 40 members at our meetings.
After more than two years use, the `regulars’ have become familiar and professional with Zoom.
Meeting `discipline' is good, but occasionally members may somewhat prolong a discussion.
There are a lot of people at the meeting, and they all may like a chance to join in.
I and the committee ask that:
- Everyone please avoid `jumping in’. Use the 'Raise Hand' option before raising any topic.
- Try and focus on the subject being discussed at the time; New Subject - New hand-raise.
- We ask that you avoid rambling into other side topics.
- Please don't be offended if I or one of the Co-hosts jump-in to bring the discussion back to the topic.

The FHSC Survey
A brief update on response numbers, and where the analysis is at.
Website Changes
Following last month’s discussion, is there anything else you’d like to ask?
Mini PC’s
A number of members are considering or actively replacing outdated computers with one of these very up-to-date devices.
I propose a brief discussion; seeking members who are considering use of a Mini PC, in order to upgrade their system.
These devices significantly reduce the space taken up. Both Apple and Windows systems are offered. Typically a Mini PC device is 4 5/8" x 4 1/2" x 2".
Just Google `Mini PC’. Should we form a Computer Club Sub-group rather than bore everyone else?
Back-up Software
Bill Pearson is seeking to refresh his current application. What are members’ current thoughts? – discuss
