Re: An announcement about an upcoming Mac Training course

['Mervin Keck III' via MacVisionaries]

Hi, I highly recommend both Herbie and Chanelle as instructor. And I took this class a year ago and highly recommend this class for anyone interested in learning their Mac.  If anyone takes the free class, does the homework, participates in class and other study sessions, I guarantee you will not regret it.
