Good morning WAMUG Members, I received the below email from Stephen Atherton - Apple National Higher Education Development Executive. He has asked me to forward his email to WAMUG members if I thought it appropriate. I do think it is appropriate and would be very useful and interesting to many of our members. I would have liked to attend, but unfortunately I cannot.
Cheers, Ronni Begin forwarded message: > From: Stephen Atherton <stephen.ather...@apple.com> > Subject: Re: Mail > Date: 9 June 2014 7:52:44 am AWST > To: ro...@mac.com > > Ronnie, > Today we are running an event for business schools in Perth. > > Given there are some spaces available, I can't see why WAMUG folks can't > come.
