SNUG 9th Anniversary Meeting
Tuesday, January 28th, 2003It’s been nearly 5 years since the Newton was “cancelled” by Apple, but the Newton community has kept it going strong. Tuesday night featured the 9th Anniversary Meeting of the Stanford Newton User Group, one of the first Newton user groups ever created.
When I was a freshman at Stanford, I attended one of the early meetings at the Printer’s Inc. Cafe in Palo Alto, and was promptly scared away by all of the techie computer programmer types there! You see, coming into college, I had dreams of being a chemistry and art major! I was well-versed in computers, but I never gave much thought to studying computer science. Chem32 changed all of that, however, and I went down the path of combining art and science together in Symbolic Systems.
