RE: MAPICS Old Fogies (was "mapics 6")

That is why I am crying for MAPICS sessions at COMMON....since I can only go to
one conference, I can get the whole mix at COMMON.  If we were rich I would go
to one COMMON and one MAPICS conference.  COMMON addresses so many other
technical stuff that we need.

Now, is anyone involved in a local MAPICS user group?  We used to have NJ MAPICS
User Group but that fell apart.  Anyone interested in getting it going again in
NJ?

HA! I have never been to COMMON (hear it is good, though), and I had to get
a presentation accepted for this past MAPICS conference (registration paid)
before I dared ask management for permission to go!

Budget - oh, yeah.  -- Joan

Great group!  But we never did answer Phil's question....

Do you go to COMMON?
Do you want MAPICS sessions at COMMON?
Does you company send you to both COMMON and MAPICS Conference or do you
have to
choose?

I am really curious about your answers.  Is my company the only one on a
budget?
I am forced to choose.  I have pressing issues with Web, networking, Notes,
etc.- more than just MAPICS.  MAPICS for us, besides upgrades, just runs in
the
background and keeps on ticking.  But, I really need to see what is
happening in
MAPICS for strategic direction and many times MAPICS taught me new ways of
doing
things.  So it is always a tough decision.  My company can not afford both.

What do you do?

I couldn't agree more.
Another benefit (besides reminiscing) is it shows what resources we have
available in this group.

Off topic? This has been the most fascinating exchange I've seen on the list

P.S. We may be getting slightly off topic, but I don't mind if y'all don't.
It's nice to see a little traffic on the list.
