But I encourage you to check out some computer books at local book stores to supplement what we will be discussing in this class. This class is 4 Saturdays from 8-12. Remember, your attendance is critical, so please attend if you can. I look forward to our time together. Thank you for coming!

I have to say I saw this device several months ago and I was very impressed. They kept the feel of the original Viewmaster yet added basic VR to it. I thought it was very cool. The price point is amazing. I’d recommend taking a look. Even adults who fondly remember this device will get a kick out of it!
