photos wanted

What kind of photos do you want? Are there specific subjects you would like?

Meeting announcements

We need to figure out how to get meeting announcements onto the front page. I wonder if Stefan's work creating a data entry box could be used to create a update form for the old TMUG meeting data table in the TMUG database? TMUG sysop 22:37, 2 October 2006 (EDT)

Yard Sale items

So, what are you bringing to the Yard Sale?
Not an ideal place for this -
Create a new page call Yard Sale - link to it. This page should be for discussion on the content for the first (main) page.

Smythe

Definitely bringing these goodies:

3rd generation 40 GB ipod, cable, case, etc. It has been in a case it's entire life and is in mint condition - nary a scratch. Rocked my world until the shuffle (see below).

Original 1GB iPod shuffle (the USB stick model). Many little nicks and such from being carried in my pocket, but still holds a charge. Superseded by 2nd generation (clip).

Final generation G5 iMac. Bought weeks before the Intel iMac came out. 2 GB RAM, 150 (maybe 180) GB HD, 20" screen. White plastic, iSight camera built-in, wired keyboard and mighty mouse, remote. Very little use. Beautiful little unit that did not fit into my life as I had hoped.

semi-working iBook G4. This was my Lovely Bride's, replaced with a refurbed MacBook last week. I think it's 1 GB, 80 GB HD, combo drive (plays DVDs, burns and plays CDs), extra keyboard (this model wears out keytop lettering like crazy. It was under AppleCare and taken good care of, but it traveled and was well-used.

Several old digital cameras, card readers, cases, lenses, filters, grips and the like. Compact Flash cards, micro drives, secure digital cards, more.

A Palm Tungsten|C whose only fault was living long enough to be superseded by an iPhone. Cases, stylii, cradles, other ephemera from my decade-long love affair with stylus-driven handhelds.

Not sure if I'm bringing yet:

slightly newer, better working iBook (daughter replaced hers with similar MacBook) - reformatted with original discs. This may wind up at the in-laws.

I have the following, but will only bring it if someone wants to buy:

Laptop desk - wheeled, adjustable top, stationary stationery rack on the post - you can set your coffee there and it won't tilt with the rest of the lid (stationary), and also has two letter-sized shelves below desk level - (stationery), lower shelf for printer or knapsack, hidden power strip, LED reading light can be mounted in several places. If anyone's interested, I can take and post pics.

A raft of laptop bags that have never or only barely been used. I buy them, try them out, decide they are not quite what I wanted, and either can't return or don't, and they go to the great bag shelf in the basement. Lovely Bride then gets annoyed. Ask me, and I'll give you a list, or can post photos. They are legion....
