Introduction

MacChUG's focus is to provide a forum for Mac users to share our interest and knowledge of the world's most graceful personal computer. We are a network and resource for users of all experience levels to connect with one another and exchange information and knowledge. Our goal is to promote the Mac, survive and thrive in a Windows world, and assist any and all users in advancing their skills, regardless of their platform of choice.
