Brad Leeser:
I'm a native of Illinois, but Moorhead has been my adopted
hometown since 1982. I work in a PC business world so I am
confident when I say that Macs are superior computers. I
think I've been a member of FM-MUG since about 2002,
although I attended meetings on occasion for a number of
years before that. I am married to Minka and we have two
grown children and two grown long-term foster children. I
have three grandchildren (do you want to see pictures???)
and seven "foster-grandchildren" (I'll be happy to show you
pictures of them, also!!!). Professionally, I am a medical
liability claims supervisor for MHA Insurance Company.
A little of my Mac history:
My first Mac was a Performa 6215. Presently, my primary
computer is a MacBook Pro but my wife and I also use an
iMac (Intell). We are a Mac family. My daughter and her
husband have a MacBook as well as an eMac and my son has a
PowerBook. I also have a spare iBook and a couple of G3
iMacs that I lend out when someone I know needs a computer
for a short while. Even after they use the old G3s, they
usually end up buying a Mac instead of a PC.

Helen Rudie:
I am a retired librarian (Concordia College), where I had
the first Apple computer on campus on my desk and all
students who planned to be teachers had to come in and be
able to compose a word processed message. I ran the Mac lab
at Concordia for quite a few years, but students really
kept it going and had the technical know how. My three
children are all PC freaks. Two of them make their living
in comptuer related jobs, my younger son with data security
for the Navy, and my daughter supervising conversion of
hospital records to the MediTech program.
A little of my Mac history:
My main computer is an eMac, and I just bought a MacBook
and am trying to figure out Tiger, which comes on it.
Mark Taggart:
Member since 2002. My wife, Amy, and I live in Fargo with
our daughter, Ella. I am an independent contract artist

A little of my Mac history:
My first encounter with Apple computers was in 1991 while
working on my Bachelor's degree in Fine Art -- leading to
an emphasis with Electronic Art. Nearly a decade later,
after drifting to the darkside (Microsoft), I made a
committed return to the Apple with a Titanium G4 500 Mhz
Powerbook in 2000.
I continue to work primarily on Apple computers doing
website development and creating artwork.
