In last ditch efforts to save the big arse box lot, I have talked to ti, and he has agreed to let everything he has in his house go, but he has very little motivaion to do much with it on his own. If ANYone on here is within driving distance, and can pick the stuff up from his place, he said he will let it go with no hastle. I do not know if this is the best plan or not, but we are running out of choices before he puts it to the curb. He is located in clovis, CA. (150 miles east of san jose if i recall correctly). If anyone wishes to do this, please let me know, as I will gladly help get the stuff out of there house. I would pay Ti to ship it myself, but we have seen he does not ship stuff very ...quickly. However if someone else would be able to sit in as a "middle man" for shipping this stuff, I know we could get a lot more done. I may be crazy tryin to salvage this, but a lot of money went into it, and it is apple history. ~The Penguin (crazy, but me) **| Want free 68kmla email?

Whoever goes, I'll gladly pay to get my part shipped to me. Just one additional thing is necessary. While your there, rip the check I sent to TiMac up. I'd mail off a new check to the person who holds the stuff, for the shipping price (and probably a little more).------------------ Captain Z - Mobile Operations Commander 68K Macintosh Liberation Army 31 68K Macs Liberated Visit Captain Z's Starbase of EV Stuff |

why bother ripping up the check when the stuff gets picked up. why not just stop payment. that sounds easier to me. _________________ Leutennant SCCHICAGO

yup! it's Kid Approval factor! catsdorule... do you drive at 120 MPH? (that is MILES per hour)
because it took us almost exactly 48 hours to get from my house in Renton, WA to the Needles, CA area. it's only 8 hours from needles (RIGHT near where I live) to about the Fresno area, which is about where Ti is. so you'd have at least 50-60 hours from you're post in Winterpeg Official 68k videographer Official MLA TourGuide "I'm just a normal computer geek who somehow landed a social life"

I'd like to go up there and nab some of the hot stuff, but it's a 400+ mile drive and I just won't have the time to make that kind of a trek anytime soon.
