This morning's well attended presentation was at an assistant living facility.

I've already been asked to please return next year.

2-12-2020 Rock Comp Computer Club - Apache Junction, AZ

A nice way to start the day. A good turnout from the members of Rock Comp CC.
They were a very attentive audience. We followed the presentation with a Q&A session.
Most of the questions and curiosity revolved around Avast SecureLine and HMA.
I was happy to answer questions about both of these Avast products.

2-15-2020 Prescott Computer Society - Prescott, AZ

It was an interesting afternoon yesterday.
The Prescott library had installed a new projector that would not
work with my computer. The club offered an older computer which worked
with the new projector except, that computer didn't have PowerPoint installed.
Persistence again paid off, I had uploaded a copy of the presentation to my
OneDrive and, was successfully able to show that presentation using an online
version of PowerPoint. Maybe we should consider this a remote, in person presentation.
My thanks to the club for their patience while we worked through the problems.
All's well that ends well. The presentation was well received and we had quite a
few questions on various topics during and after the presentation.
Avast Free, Passwords Manager, SecureLine, Avast Omni

@bob, You know you can create PDF's of your presentation from Powerpoint, which may be a backup if that happens again. Not sure if you have dynamic content in your pesentation though. Laptops and projectors are one of my pet hates over the years.

The problem has to do with embedded video's that are part of the presentation.
PDF's aren't the answer. A fully updated presentation is now available to me online if it's ever needed again.
This is the 11th year of doing these presentations. It's the first time I've ever run into this problem.

2-19-2020 Personal Computer Club of Toronto - Remote Presentation

Last night, I remotely joined the Club members based in Canada.
We covered a very wide range of topics including the recently reported
Avast data sharing controversy.
Most club members, once I explained the entire story, were a lot more at ease
once they had all the facts. I can't say that they rejoiced but, those
club members who used Avast, are still Avast customers and will remain Avast users.
