Port Macquarie Seniors Computer Group Inc. Xxxxxxx. Newsletter. Volume: Issue: XXXXXXXX.2020.

Editorial. Well it looks like we’re well into the second phase of the Virus, in Victoria anyway and it looks like it’s been imported to Sydney . Let’s hope it doesn’t arrive in Port. We should also take note of what happened in New Zealand and not relax our social isolation for a good while yet. For all those who are interested in just how safe our computers are online and how easy it is to be hacked by those who wish to do so, there is a great series streaming on SBS – On Demand. It’s called Cyberwar and there are two seasons available for watching at the moment. For most of us, we’re just not important enough to be hacked at this level, except by scammers trying to get our money and personal information, but it give a great insight of just what is being, can be, and will be hacked in the future, by interested Governments, mercenaries and other Commercial Interests. That’s all for now, keep yourselves and your families Safe and Happy. Editor.

Christmas Get Together 2020

A note from President Peggy

Committee has made a decision on our Christmas Get Together for this year. We are NOT cancelling the event, but merely postponing until a safe time in 2021. I do not see that time being until at least half way thru next year. We must consider not just ourselves but everyone around us, especially those family members at home. Thru out this “shutdown” your committee has still been working. However, there seemed NO alternative to our usual Get Together. Social Distancing is the key to staying safe. Hence our decision. Let us look forward to better times, and a belated Christmas Get Together in 2021. President Peggy.
