The Association of Apple Computer Users & Groups...
- AACUG champions these three missions:
-
- To Assist and Advance the success and proliferation of computer clubs who support
owners and users of Apple Computer products.
- To provide user group services and opportunities to all owners and users of Macintosh
computers, and their software and peripherals in remote locations where no user group
support organization exists.
- To participate in Legislative, and Regulatory advocacy in the U.S. Federal Government
for human interest causes concerning the user of computers, the Internet, and technology
in general.
-
These three missions branch into a myriad of subcategories which reach far into
the success of computer use in all walks of life. So many, in fact, they reach beyond
the reasonable scope of this document.
The overall ideal is to build an independent community organization that provides
the ever growing constituency of Apple Macintosh related computer users with
-
a strong organization for support, education and advocacy
-
an independent, community 'voice' in the technology industry, and
-
a recognized channel through which individuals can participate in the protection
of their own personal rights and freedoms as computer users.

- User Groups are User Groups, right_
- Not so. As an Apple or Macintosh related user group, you have special needs that
the rest of the world may not be able to understand nor fulfill.
The AACUG has its roots in active organizations which have supported
and nurtured the Mac community for nearly two decades. The founders of AACUG, have
combined experience in the computer user group community of more than 30 years.AACUG
is here to help you find answers to the questions BEFORE they occur to you.
We invite you to make use of AACUG's resources and take advantage
of the AACUG newsletter, mail lists, and online chats and so forth. Get to know other
UG officers from around the country/world at AACUG national, regional and local user
group gatherings.
It's been proven many times over that sharing your needs and
ideas with your fellow user group officers can be a valuable and enriching experience.
