- Washington Area NeXT Users Group Announcements - January 1993
-
- ***** January WaNUG Meeting *****
-
- The January Washington Area NeXT Users Group (WaNUG) meeting will be
- at MITRE, 1820 Dolly Madison Blvd (Route 123), McLean, VA, on
- Wednesday, January 13, at 7:00pm. There is free parking, and
- directions are below.
-
- Systemix Software president Brian Cuthie will demonstrate SafetyNet,
- their new system backup product. Awarded a 4 cube rating, the Fall
- '92 issue of NeXTWORLD magazine commented that it "offers promise as
- the premier backup solution." Systemix says that SafetyNet stands
- out because it offers the ability to create pre-canned backup
- profiles, backup any mounted UNIX filesystem, create on-line catalog
- of tape contents, and provides quick retrieval from tape.
-
- As always, you are invited to a little dinner get-together afterwards
- (location to be determined).
-
- We hope to see you there!
-
- Directions to Mitre:
-
- Mitre is in McLean, VA, near Tysons Corner. From 495, take
- the Dolly Madison Blvd. exit (Route 123) heading east. It is two
- exits south of the George Washington Parkway exit and two exits north
- of the Route 66 intersection. At the second light, make a left into
- the Mitre parking lot.
