Welcome to the Prescott Computer Society
A typical PCS meeting scene.
The Prescott Computer Society (PCS) is a PC-based users group located in Prescott, Arizona. Our primary attention is focused on IBM-compatible computers,
associated software and smart phones. We strive to provide personal, home office and small business computing solutions and presentation topics. You may obtain both basic and
advanced information about computers by attending our club's meetings.
We hold several meetings each month to show you how to get the most out of your computer. These consist of our General meeting
as well as several Special Interest Group meetings. Anyone with an interest in computers is welcome to attend our meetings and join PCS.
PCS is a member of the Association of Personal Computer User Groups (APCUG).
Interested in Membership?
Additional information about PCS is available at our About Us
page. For information about becoming a member of PCS, please contact
Murray Smolens, our Membership chair.
Fun Stuff
A typical Q&A meeting chaired by some of our favorite PCS members. It's known as a "Stump The Geeks" session which is always enjoyed by all those who attend.
We often hold Question and Answer sessions at General meetings where our members attempt to
"Stump The Geeks" with their questions about computer and smartphone problems and other related issues.
Do the geeks ever get stumped? Of course, once in a while they do but we all appreciate the very interesting and informative discussions that
are held. I guess you'll just have to come to a meeting to see for yourself.
Meeting Info
Unless otherwise noted, all meetings will be held in the Founders Suite (1st floor) of the Prescott Public Library.
The Library is located at 215 E. Goodwin Street, Prescott, Arizona.
Our extended meeting schedule (5-6 months in advance) is available here.
Free Android App

Smartphone SIG - Leader: Murray Smolens

Murray Smolens will be presenting tips and tricks for your Android phone as

useful. If you're in the market for a new phone, or are taking the dip into
the smartphone pool for the first time (now literally possible thanks to
almost-waterproof devices), we'll show the current recommendations from
Consumer Reports and others. Finally, we'll reveal the new Android operating
system: will it be Oreo, Orange Slices, Oatmeal Cookie - or even Octopus? We
should know by the time the eclipse passes, but stop by on Saturday anyway to find out what it can do.
