Our BOSFCPUG meeting for May is going to be quite an interesting one.

It just so happens that Beantown now has the biggest Apple Store in the country with the Boylston Street Apple Store.

Well, the good people at Boylston Street have asked the BOSFCPUG to schedule several gatherings outside of our normal monthly meetings this year.

So, on Friday, May 22nd (which just so happens to be the birthday of two very cool twins), the BOSFCPUG will hold its' first "FINAL CUT FRIDAY," from 6:30pm - 8:30pm, on the top floor of the Boylston Street Apple Store at 815 Boylston Street  in Boston.

Please join us!
