We are a nonprofit organization formed June 1, 1983 by a hand full of interested parties. We began our meetings in the basement of the former New World Bank in South Yarmouth as the Cape Cod Apple Users Group. Four months later, Al Deckel became the president and held that position until the late eighties. As IBM compatible computers gained in popularity many members started sharing an interest in these clones. Because of this, the group's focus became split and a second group was formed known as the IBM Group. These groups, together could no longer be called the Cape Cod Apple Users Group and thus, the Computer Society of Cape Cod was born. Now that multiple platforms were discussed these two groups decided to meet on two separate nights. The purpose of the two groups was to help individuals interested in computers learn more about them. That is still our main objective today. When Al Deckel stepped down, Karl Young took over as the president of the IBM Group and Ronald Church became president of the Apple Group. A number of years later Winston Rockefeller took over as the president of both Groups for several years until his death during the summer of 1996. Then Karl Young the vice president of the IBM Group, became the president. We only had a few members in the Apple Group so they started meeting with the IBM Group. In early 1997 the MAC Group join the Society. At that time Karl Young became the president of The IBM Group which changed its name to The PC Group and Fred Pryor the president of the MAC Group. We meet once a month, usually on the first Wednesday of the month. See Next Meeting Page for all the correct information on the date, day and time of meetings. We try very hard to start all meetings at 7PM sharp.
