Member Benefits
HAL-PC is the world’s largest PC user group. HAL-PC offers its members free e-mail and dial-up
internet access, meetings and special events, and broadband internet access through the HALNet
internet system, plus an outstanding monthly online magazine. We also offer member discounts on an
extensive list of computer classes, free workshops on how to use the internet, troubleshooting workshops for members with hardware and software issues and a large volunteer help committee who have made themselves available to assist fellow members with more than eighty-five software programs.
SIGs and Study Groups
Dozens of Special Interest Groups meet regularly at HAL-PC. Some special SIGs such as the Build or Buy
SIG assist members both in understanding what to ask for if they want a custom system, or ordering the
components and, under supervision, assembling their own systems. We feel that this in particular
fosters confidence in the owner and a stronger understanding of computers. HAL-PC hosts study groups
who meet regularly to prepare for highly sought after certifications such as MCIE and A+. Non-members
may
attend SIG meetings up to three times as a guest. Our community outreach program takes in surplus
computer
equipment from
area businesses and individuals, restores it as neccessary and redistributes it to Houston area schools, charities and non-profits.
HAL-PC Headquarters
HAL-PC's spacious headquarters building is centrally located in the Uptown Houston area. Our facility features three fully equipped meeting rooms, two of which can be combined to provide a single space of over 2000 square feet, two instructional labs and in-house internet access for visiting members.
Membership in HAL-PC offers all this for
only $50 per year. Don't wait --
