The Boston Computer Society (BCS) was an organization of personal computer users, based in Boston, Massachusetts, United States , that ran from 1977 to 1996. At one point, it was the largest such group in the world, with regular user group meetings, many publications, permanent offices in Boston, and hosting major product announcements, including the East Coast release of the Apple Macintosh in 1984.
