PRESIDENT'S COMMENTS
================
We have all heard that Microsoft's Windows 8 introduction went over like a lead balloon with many users. Microsoft recognized this and has made a number of changes to it in order to make it more intuitive and user friendly. If you are a Windows user you should want to learn about these changes. What better way than to attend our meeting, have some dinner, network and then listen to a Microsoft solutions specialist discuss the new Window 8.1 features.
Microsoft has made many changes in recent years in order to expand and enhance their communications capabilities. Lync is their latest offering. Again, I think it would be in your best interest to learn about Lync.
