The Program

MacBuild is a post-Build program available to volunteers who have completed the Build program and are looking for something new and different. The MacBuild area works with desktops, laptops and accessories manufactured by Apple. We pride ourselves by standing out from the rest and encourage the exchange of ideas in building these computers. Come on by and think different!
