There are still a few more Kachemacs t-shirts available. We have another order placed, and will soon be getting new ladies’ slim fit cap sleeve t-shirts! Ladies, look sleek as a Leopard (or Tiger, Panther, or Jaguar) in your Kachemacs baby tee! Shirts are screened right here in Homer at Mananaprint/The Sweat Shop. All shirts are $12 for short sleeve, $14 for long sleeve. Here is are photos of the long sleeve front and back…

The Kachemacs Alaska T-shirts are finished! If you are interested, they are $12 for a short sleeve and $14 for a long sleeve. Bring your money to the next meeting if you want one. They were screened locally by The Sweat Shop, and they did a great job.

I am looking for anyone willing to sell their old iPhone. I’m in the market for the older model for someone. I’d rather find one locally from a real person than on eBay. If anybody knows of someone who has one for sale, let me know through the comments on the blog, or drop me an e-mail or call. Any reasonable offer will be considered. Thanks!

Hello, all!

I got word of a few older macs for sale. Let me know if you want to offer this guy anything for a perfectly usable Mac, either for kids, or for archiving, or whatever. Here’s what he said:

In particular are two blue and whites with upgraded processors that I just took out of service as servers. I also have an original Imac and a couple of emacs. I will look at any offer. I just hate to toss perfectly good Macs.

Please let me know if you have any interest.
Thanks!

Jan sent me this info via e-mail, and I’ll share it with the Kachemacs.

In case anyone was actually interested in running Windoze on their Mac,
here’s the software for sale.

If you must, you can run Windows an an intel Mac without Boot Camp.

Parallels 3.0 install disc in original box – unused…it was a gift
and I’m not wanting to run windows on a mac…

$50 shipped – US Post Office money order or Wal-Mart money-gram for
quicker service. If you use the money gram I sell shipped $45 to share
the cost of money gram.

Have a full install upgrade Vista disc (unused) for an additional $40
- you need to own a windows version w/key to install.

Kachemacs, check your new Community Schools catalog. Our own Kachemac, Stephen Scarpitta, is running a 5 part series of Mac tutorials at the high school. I would highly encourage the beginning Mac users in the group to attend. As much as we try to cater to all levels of users, including beginners, we still may not give individuals all the attention they need. This class will be a perfect adjunct to the sharing experiences the Kachemacs offer.

The class is a reasonable $50 for the series. Sign up early because there is a class size minimum.

I picked up one of those Lifesaver g3 iMacs for a good price and upgraded it to run Panther.  The person who had wanted it can’t use it now, so I still have it.  It even has a box.  I’d like it to be used on a loan basis for our members who have come to a meeting and are interested in Mac but don’t have the contact time with one to “try before you buy.”  If you know someone who could use some “Mac time” and would like to take it home for a couple weeks, let me know.  If anyone else has a spare Mac that could be used for the same purpose, let me know and we can try to get it out there for grabs.

Don’t forget to bring items or descriptions of items you are looking to buy or get rid of to the next meeting!  Free advertising, take advantage of it.
