Pre-pandemic, Tony Bogan and I were thinking about starting up a traditional Apple II Users Group headquarted at InfoAge. Sadly, the pandemic required me to move to Charleston, SC for employment reaons (more about that soon). Maybe someone else will pick up the mantle with Tony once the idea of bringing physically people together in person with like interests is back in vogue.

VCFed is not a user group in the traditional sense like these, but with the Internet, forums and such, a user group 2.0 Bill
