The launch of MacResearcher.com
A new Mac site has asked ASUMAC to announce the launch of their new site:
The MacResearcher team is proud to announce the official launch of MacResearcher.com (http://www.macresearcher.com), the ultimate online resource and community for the Mac-loving scientist. MacResearcher offers articles, news, and reviews as well as a diverse selection of forums for community interaction.
In the true spirit of community, MacResearcher allows and encourages all members to step up to the digital soap box and submit content for publication on the MacResearcher.com main page. If you're an Xgrid guru, a digital gene hacker, algorithm architect, or Powerbook toting physicist, MacResearcher offers you the platform to share your arcane knowledge with the über-intelligent world of MacResearchers. MacResearcher.com is for MacResearchers by MacResearchers, so If you'd like to add a feature to the site, run a MacResearcher blog, or host an open-source software project, MacResearcher can accommodate you.
Head over to MacResearcher.com now for the latest news, tips, and tricks. All forms of feedback are welcome. Thank you for taking the time to read our announcement.
Sincerely,
MacResearcher.com Team

Thanks for attending
The Sep. 20th ASUMAC general meeting went well. A special thanks to Frank Callaham for presenting (and to Bob Lewis for introducing Frank so I didn't have to speak to the audience). Thanks to Bob, Al Teran, Tina Rutledge, Anish Adalja and all ASUMAC Steering Committee members who helped make the meeting a success. I hope those of you that were able to attend received some helpful information concerning Apple's latest offering in enterprise storage solutions.
Congratulations to the door prize winners, especially Lou Guerrero from the Biodesign Institute for winning the 1 GB iPod shuffle. I've been informed there may be another iPod shuffle giveaway at the next ASUMAC general meeting in October, but I'll have to check with Bob Lewis to make sure it's official.
Thanks again and we'll see you at the next general meeting on Tuesday, October 18th.
TJ Sokol
ASUMAC Chairperson
