> ***"Go On Safari" Tip of the Week Contest Winner--Rory Blyth, Portland 
> Area Game Developer Interest Group
> "Social Ramifications--The benefits of Safari go even beyond its
> intended scope. Just walk into a room full of nerds and say, 'I've got 
> Safari.'
>
> About 10% of them will be scratching their heads, wondering why it is 
> that you're bragging about having the latest and greatest OS X web 
> browser, but the rest will be drooling and calling you horrible names. 
> They will call you horrible names because they're jealous. They'll be 
> jealous because they're sick of finding lewd
> photos of tennis rackets when what they really want is help."

> User Group members can participate in our "Go On Safari" introductory

> (Please include your UG name in the email.)
>
> Every week someone will be chosen from the tips or comments submitted to 
> receive fun stuff from O'Reilly (T-shirts, book bags, or other surprises) 
> . If a member of your user group is selected, your group receives a free 
> gift, too. Whatever the

> comments--will be announced in this User Group Newsletter.
