The MUG Event Calendar transitions between months with some interesting meetings and a regional expo with an all-star cast.

Apple itself will be represented on two continents this week, with the company’s Dave Marra presenting to a group on Connecticut, and Joe Cox visiting a group in Australia. A California group will hold their annual Mac expo that features more than a few names you know.

“The MUG Event Calendar” can be found at The MUG Center (http://www.mugcenter.com), an online resource for Mac User Groups. MUGs are good places for making new friends in the Mac community, improving your computing skills, finding solutions to technical problems, and perhaps locating a good deal on used hardware. For more info on MUGs, and to find the location of the one nearest you, go to Apple’s MUG page (http://www.apple.com/usergroups/).
