New Computers will be Installed this Week

The ACTC is getting new computers installed this week, so we will have a full complement of working computers to better serve our clients. With the new computer installation, we will also have enough memory to install MS Office 2007. We will switch instruction from Office 2003 to Office 2007 during spring break (the week of March 15-19), and after that time will use Office 2007 for instruction. If you need classes in 2003, please sign up before March 12. If you prefer using MS 2007, sign up for classes AFTER March 19.
