Subject: BMac-May 2002-VXA Backup

I'd like to apologize for the lateness of this message-the first one I sent
right before leaving for the airport didn't go out.

Do you backup?  How much time/effort/energy do you have invested in the
data on your computer(s)?  Can you live without your data?

If you can't quickly and easily recreate your data, then check out this
reasonably affordable backup option.

We'll also have a discussion of other backup options during our Q&A time.

And, of course, we'll have some special give-aways!!!

We'll see you there!


Now for the pertinent info:

Date:    May 8, 2002
Time:    7:00 PM
Place:   MIT campus, building E51, Room 325. Signs the night of the
meeting will direct you to the proper building and room.

Building E51 is on the corner of Memorial Drive and Wadsworth Street.
If you need a map, please check out our website at
