No, we haven’t suddenly become fans of The Doobie Brothers circa 1976. We’re actually rolling up our sleeves, getting out there and interfacing with you, our customers, both locally and on a larger scale.
Locally, we’ll have a representative at the February 12th meeting of The NorthWest of Us Mac Users Group. TNWoU and OWC have had a long-time relationship, and we’re always glad to help out a neighbor.
It’ll be a two-part session. The first part will cover basic upgrades to improve the performance of your Mac, such as upgrading to a faster/larger hard drive and adding more memory. The speed benefits of adding an SSD will also be discussed.
The second part will address methods of data protection. These will include single drives for simple backup, RAID setups for added protection against hardware failure, and network solutions to provide secure backup and allow file sharing for all computers in your house/business.
Check out The NorthWest of Us Web site for more information.
On the more immediate end of things, if you happen to be in the San Francisco are this week, you can catch some of the OWC crew at Macworld Expo 2011. They’ll be showing off all our latest and greatest accessories for your Mac, including the new line of SSDs that we debuted earlier in the month.
If you haven’t picked up your tickets to the expo floor yet, you’re in luck. While the discount for the conferences has passed, those of you who just want to go to the exhibits (which is where the OWC booth is located) can take advantage of an exclusive OWC offer – free Exhibit-only Admission is available through the show. All you need to do is pop on over to our Web site and register. Once you do, come see the OWC crew at Booth #513.
Tell ‘em OWC Chris sent you.
Sorry, I’ll miss that. Hoping to be recuperating from a hip replacement then.
