Colin Baker actor and sixth Dr Who in Chester on Saturday, September 23
Colin Baker, the actor who played the sixth Doctor Who, is to attend a special event in Chester on Saturday, 23 September organised by MCC Apple Premium Reseller. Visitors to the store will be able to take home a signed photograph of themselves with Colin Baker. They can see first hand how Apple’s iPhoto, bundled free with every Mac, makes going from digital camera to colour print or even publishing to the internet simple. There will also be an instore competition to win one of 5 iPod nanos.
MCC opened their new store at 5-7 Watergate Row right in the heart of Chester’s famous medieval rows last month. The iPhoto demonstration will be held within the Apple shop which is the only computer specialist to feature a Canon Digital Centre in the UK.
“We are thrilled that Colin Baker is time travelling to Chester at our iPhoto event,” said Scott Brenchley, Store Manager of MCC Apple Premium Reseller. “This will be an excellent day for everyone, young and old who have grown up with the famous and long running TV series. Come and see how simple it is using Apple’s i-Photo software to have a photo printed in store.
There is so much equipment available in the Chester store, whether it be iPods, laptops, digital cameras or Mac minis. iPods are on their fourth generation whilst Doctor Who has morphed into his tenth characterisation so far! Chester’s vibrant community is full of people who love their iPods and who enjoy getting creative with a Mac and iLife ‘06. We have an exciting new iMac line which delivers a faster performance with a bigger 24-inch wide screen display. We will always have experts on hand to help anyone from those just learning about our products and multi-media, through to experts who want to use our pro-Area for professional multi-media work.”
Colin Baker will attend the MCC Apple Premium Reseller store from 11.30 am to 3.30 pm on Saturday September 23, 2006. The instore competition will run from 9.30 am to 5 pm.
