Hello everybody Recently we have not posted these welcome messages, because we've had so many new members join and some leave, and we felt it would have been tedious to continually post new member welcomes and group members would have been justifiably irritated by them. However, we feel that the time has come to post just one of them so that new members may know what we have to offer besides just list membership. So we hope that the rest of the group will tolerate just one new member welcome message. Important: Please do not reply to this message on list. If you wish to comment, please contact Mac Access Support or the new member personally.
It was, until recently, traditional when new members join the Mac Access Dot Net email forum that Gordon, Tracy and I try to welcome the new member(s) personally. In keeping with that tradition, we are delighted to welcome Judy Pryor to our number. We are gratified by the fact that Mac Access is growing globally. We hope that you will find [email protected] a pleasant, friendly and worthwhile place to be. In here you will find a wealth of knowledge, and people with a variety of skill levels ranging from the total novice, to the application developers with advanced skills. Then there are those who don't yet own an Apple device, but have a keen interest; and those who just use iOS devices but who are keen enthusiasts. We hope you will feel free to post your questions and constructive comment, whatever your skill levels may be. Be assured, there will be none of the ridiculing and flaming which we know takes place in other groups. That kind of behaviour is not tolerated in Mac-Access. Anything Mac OS and iOS is on topic for this group. In the case of virtualisation applications such as Fusion and Parallels Desktop, the configuration of the applications themselves, plus the configuration of the virtual machines is on topic. However, the configuration of Windows or any other operating systems within that virtual machine is off topic. The exception to that is if you're using another instance of OSX within the virtual machine. This has always been a bit of a grey area; but we hope this clarifies the position. We should also make clear the fact that Apple's Windows applications are off topic for this group. This is strictly an iOS and Mac OS discussion forum. If you have any list-related queries, please do not hesitate to contact Tracy, Gordon and myself, (the list owners), at <[email protected]> and we will be happy to help you. Finally, I thought you might like to know that currently we are offering all Mac-Access. members the opportunity to purchase the Take Control Of Your Mac publications, published by Tidbits.com, at an 80% discount. If you want to know more, please contact the above support address. For a listing of the books available please visit: http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/catalog Don't buy from there, get back to us with a list of books or the name of the book that interests you and we'll tell you how to proceed. We should make it clear that under the current rules, group members must have ben, and agree to remain a member of Mac Access for a period of no less than 28 days prior to their first purchase and subsequent from their current purchase. This rule now exists because, sadly, we were getting some members joining to exploit the system and then leave. Once again, a very warm welcome to the group. We hope you find your membership an enjoyable, instructive and stimulating experience. Season's greetings to all members.
