With a boxed lunch provided as part of the reasonable registration fee and tea and coffee on tap, there is not much to do but soak up the Mac ambience all day! A room of classic Macs will be up and running with advice from Peter Mellow to “please touch” so you can reminisce about the good old days. All registered people will receive a CD-ROM with all of the session notes on in a conference satchel. The trade show is free for anyone to view if you don’t want to attend the conference.
At the end of the day is a spot prize draw with over $6000 worth of Mac gear up for grabs including a brand new eMac from Campus IT. A keynote address from Mac user Russell Brown (computer columnist, NZ Listener) kicks off the day at 9 am. Major sponsors and supporters are NZ Macguide and Microsoft, along with the host AUT.
