CX10 (Night): Digital Photography: “Click, then what?” *
Take better pictures with your digital camera.  Explore digital photography from camera details to how to take better photographs to how to do basic editing of your photographs.

This course explores basic photography in the digital world. Better understand your digital camera’s advantages, disadvantages, features, settings and vocabulary.  We will blend fundamental theory and practical hands-on work. We’ll take photographs under different conditions; get the photographs into and out of a digital camera and personal computer; discuss different organizing methods for the many photographs you take; do basic picture editing; and explore alternatives for viewing, printing and saving photographs. There are lots of options in your digital camera; know what they are and when and how to use them. Recognize when “fully automatic” is the best strategy and when to take control. There are eight meetings of which three will be in the computer labs.

CX11: How to Run Windows on a Mac
Windows users, are you considering buying a new computer? Your best choice may be a Mac even if you still need to or just want to use your favorite Windows applications. Current Macs run Windows XP and Vista (as well as many Linux OSs) as smoothly as almost any standard Windows machine, and with a Mac you have the choice of running Windows (and/or Linux) in two different ways. You can choose to run Windows as 1 of 2 operating systems that are setup to boot your Mac using Apple's included Bootcamp program, or you can boot Mac OSX and run Windows inside OSX with a very small Windows performance penalty, or you can configure the Mac to run Windows both ways. Either way, you have access to the best of both operating systems and a very reliable computer.

Mac users, If you are interested in running another operating system in addition to the Mac OS, This workshop is for you too -- (Note: this workshop will be held in Room 20, the PC Computer Lab.)
