Lynda temporarily Unavailable

Hey all. Lynda.com is having some trouble with their system right now, so things are running impossibly slow. We've been in touch with them, though, and they expect things to be back to normal within a few hours. Sorry for any inconvenience!

Everything's Back to Normal now!

Books, like in a library

We have some new books in the lab!

iMovie '11 & iDVD: The Missing Manual, iPhoto '11: The Missing Manual, and WordPress for Dummies. If you'd like to take a look at these or any of our books, ask the lab consultant on duty. They'll be happy to help.

Introduction to OS X Lion Workshop Today

In case you missed the last workshop on Apple's newest operating system, "Lion," Will Le, Apple's student rep on Penn's campus, is offering it again this very afternoon (Friday, Oct 7, 2pm-3:30pm in the WIC Seminar Room). It's a great introduction for anyone who's thinking about upgrading, or for people who have already made the switch but weren't quite sure how to take advantage of all the new features.

We Lost a Friend Yesterday

The lab owes a great deal to the man who helped bring us all of this incredible technology. We always had a charge after seeing what new things he would unveil at his press conferences. Steve's products were always clean, sleek, and sometimes beautiful, but most importantly, they just worked. His company certainly shaped our daily lives and with his early involvement with Pixar, he helped warm our heart. You will be missed sir.
