Hi All,

First off, I'd just like to say thanks again to Ben Leung and the rest of the USF administration for enabling the use of Macs for finals. After using a broken down old Dell for finals for two years, using my own PowerBook for exams felt fantastic.

MacWorld Is Next Week
Speaking of fantastic, MacWorld is right around the corner. Steve Jobs' keynote address is scheduled for next Tuesday, 1/15, at 9am at the Moscone Center. The rumors sites are full of wild speculation. The great news, however, is that this time they might actually be on target.

If you'd like to attend for FREE, I've listed a code below that will set the price for an Exhibit Hall pass to $0 (Educator Discount). The code was part of a coupon whose expiration date has passed, however Apple's Sales Rep, Chris Rushworth, tells me that the code will still work. The original coupon has been uploaded to the Files section of the Yahoo Group site.

Register here.
Code: 08-D-APE

Rumor Roundups:


Spring Meeting
As for events this semester, Dane Riley, Apple Systems Engineer, has volunteered to present a lunchtime demonstration of Apple's latest operating system, Leopard (OS X 10.5). Dane will talk about what's new in Leopard and demonstrate how to get the most out of your Mac.

The date for Dane's presentation is still being set, but it will most likely be sometime in the next couple of weeks. I'll send out another email once the date is confirmed.


Mac Law Students Is Looking For Writers
http://maclawstudents.com/ is a great resource for those of us laboring through our legal education. The site's founder, Erik Schmidt (a 3L at Santa Clara) is looking for writers to keep the site going after he graduates.

"I'm looking for 1Ls and 2Ls who are enthusiastic about using their Macs in law school and have something to share. . . . It has always been my intent that MLS be a collaborative site, rather than just an outlet for my one voice. If you want to write for Mac Law Students, now is the time to let me know. Tell me a bit about you, where you attend school, what you'd like to write about, what sort of writing experience you have (outside of papers for college), and realistically how much you think you could write (two software reviews a semester, a technique article per semester, a one-time article about your software and hardware setup, et. al.). I'm also very interested in material from law students outside the United States."

If you're interested in writing for the site, drop Erik a note here:
