On Saturday, June 27, noted technology columnist Rob Pegoraro will drop in for a visit, talking about Apple's World Wide Developer Conference and any other interesting topics he can fit into the conversation.
Washington Apple Pi held their annual election in May, and is pleased to welcome Roy Wagner as the newly elected President. Yes, technically, we elect a Board and the Board elects the President, but we were going for a snappier presentation.

The Pi has posted a massive library of Washington Apple Pi Journal issues from 1979 to 2016, with thousands of pages of information on everything from Apple II interrupts to adding ringtones to an iPhone.
