The PC Workshop is a facility where Laguna Woods Village residents can use a computer and get help on basic questions. There are more than thirty (30) well-maintained computers with current operating systems, basic office suite software, and a broadband connection to the Internet. Additionally, some machines are equipped with scanners and digital imaging software. The PC Workshop is open five days a week and is always staffed with Laguna Woods Village PC Club volunteer Supervisors and Greeters to welcome and help users.

Both the PC Workshop and the Learning Center have ​high-speed Internet access via the Laguna Woods Village Broadband cable system.

Please Note: Volunteer members make every effort to maintain all computers in good working order for your convenience. Since these computers are used by a large number of people, some user guidelines have been established to help keep the PCs operational.

​Please take a moment to review these guidelines, and if you have any questions, please contact one of the Supervisors at the Workshop.

Genealogy Software
in the Workshop

The Laguna Woods PC Club is pleased to announce that we have purchased multiple copies of Family Tree Maker desktop software program, V2017. No longer included in Ancestry.com’s product line, it has been updated, revitalized and made available by a popular software producer.  It is again highly regarded and widely used by Genealogists and Family History Researchers. (see below) We will be installing it on Learning Center PCs, plus several in the Workshop for those who would like to take a “test drive.” 
​
​​Then, as part of our Education Department’s activities, we will begin an on-going Study Group for users who want to explore and utilize the many excellent features of this program. Stay tuned; more information will soon be available on our website, in the Workshop and in our future weekly messages.  To explore some of the many features, tools and benefits of Family Tree Maker 2017, visit this website: https://www.mackiev.com/ftm
