Higham and Rushden

Computing and Technology


 

We meet on the first and third Saturdays each month from 10:00 to 12:00 in the Community Room in Waitrose, Rushden.

We cover PCs and Laptops running Windows 10 and 11, and welcome users of all levels. It is an informal meeting with the content determined by the needs of the members present, normally including revision of basic topics, but more experienced users are very welcome to drop in with questions or problems with which they would like assistance.

Parking - If you drive to the meeting please be aware that it is best to sign in with your vehicle details at the reception desk to ensure you do not receive a civil penalty for overstaying the parking time limit.

The group is led by Jim and Maggie Morrison.

Please bring your laptop with you (and your power cable if your battery will not last 2 hours). If you normally use a desktop computer please do not bring it! We have a spare laptop for anyone without, but it might be useful to bring your own USB stick (flash drive) on which to save notes of what you learned. If you want to have a tea or coffee at the mid-session break you will need to bring a reusable cup.

We welcome computer users of all levels of ability.

Please remember that there is no such thing as a stupid question, only a stupid answer, and do not be afraid to ask.
We also publish the tutorials here once each presentation has been delivered to the group.
