Description
Since the advent of the home computer in the early 1980s there have been computer clubs. In the early days when there were many different computers running many different operating systems, people got together to share advice and learn more about using the computers they had. Now with computers being much more advanced and with so much more that can be done with them, people get together to share tips, teach other people knowledge and just to generally socialise.
Dedication
All sorts of people from the young to the retired, male and female, experienced professionals and terrified new users. Some might have been programming computers for decades ago and others never will. What ties members together is a common enthusiasm. If you have a willingness to meet other computer enthusiasts or wish to learn about new software or new technology, a computer club is a great organisation to be a member of.
Cost
Most clubs will charge a modest membership fee, some may charge a joining fee and there may be a cost per meeting which generally goes towards hire of a venue, etc.
