The Tokyo PC Users Group holds annual elections at the October meeting.  If the TPC is to continue holding monthly meetings and improving the new website, we will need to know who is interested in running for the offices of president and vice president.

This year, it’s particularly important to get people involved as I will not be running for re-election and Sako Eaton has had to resign as vice president.  If we can not find people who are interested in running the club—finding speakers for the monthly meetings; and adding content to the new website then it will be my last and sad duty to disband the group.

It may well be that the TPC has outlived its usefullness.  It was started out of a need for English language information on building and repairing personal computers; and now a lot of that information is available online.

I won’t keep you, but I did want you to know that if we have no volunteers to run for the offices of president and vice president by the October 6 meeting, the Tokyo PC Users Group will be no more. If you’re interested, just show up at the meeting.

As usual the meeting will be held at the Tokyo Union Church in Omotesando.  Doors open at 6:30, meetining starts at 7:00.  In light of the fact that this may be the last TPC meeting, I have not scheduled a speaker.  If we find the volunteers to continue the TPC by that evening, then the time will be spent in discussion on how to manage and maintain the Tokyo PC Users Group. If you need a map to the meeting please email me at

Thanks,
Barbara Manning, TPC president
