Tech Columnist Rob Pegoraro to Speak at Cleveland Park Library

The Washington Post's technology columnist, Rob Pegoraro, will be the guest speaker at the next meeting of the Capital PC Users Group (CPCUG) on Saturday, December 11 at 1:00pm at the Cleveland Park Library, 3310 Connecticut Avenue, NW (at Macomb Street).

Are you considering whether to buy a computing device other than a classic desktop or laptop? This is just the thing for you, as Rob Pegoraro will bring and demonstrate an Apple iPad, Samsung Galaxy Tab, and Barnes & Noble Nook Color, and will cover the pros and cons of each. He’ll also discuss what he’d like to see each device do better. Gather your questions and join the discussion. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from a professional tech reviewer. Rob will also share tips about gadgets, software, and services he’s used and appreciated.

This event is free and open to all. For more information about the seminar, the speaker, or the other free monthly events put on by the nonprofit CPCUG , click here. To RSVP, send an email to Barbara Conn at bconn at cpcug dot org.

I recommend Robert Morshauser (www.TheRightCliq.com -- 202-986-7571.) He's great, prompt and reasonable priced, and has dealt successfully with both hardware and software issues for me. He was able to come quickly, bring and do what was needed and leave me with a "like new" computer and with very reasonable prices. He was wonderful.
