Welcome to Paradise Computer Club

Welcome to the

Paradise Computer Club  
   
   

 

2011 - 2012 season 

 

Our Season runs from October 1st through September 30th.

Saturday meetings are scheduled from Nov. 6, 2011

 to April 3, 2012

Scheduled Programs began November 6, 2011


What's New??

 

                          Note:                          April 10, 2012

The Paradise Resident's Association would like a Website.

A survey was sent out to the Computer Club membership asking who might be interested.  The survey resulted in many positive responses.

So now the plan is to schedule some SIG training sessions on this subject in November, 2012 and have someone qualified to teach it.  Catch-up sessions can be planned for interested members who arrive in the park later in the season.

 

The Resident’s Association is active only during the seasonal winter months so the Web Master position does not require year round residency in the park.

In fact the web site can be worked remotely if required.

WARNING  Avoid pressing the  F1 key while on the internet

 While browsing on the internet, if you see a notice telling you to press your F1 key (that's across top left of your keyboard)

 DON'T DO IT.  This key usually means "Help" but not if you are online.  It will release a potent virus in your computer. . .Do not press the F1 key no matter how many times your computer asks you to.  If you don't press F1, you will be constantly reminded to do so . . .just click on the little 'x' on the window, or close your browser totally - might even be better to reboot.
