I was pleasantly surprised, the other day, when I was in Target and saw some eeePCs for sale, right on the endcap, for $299.99.* * (Not affiliated with Target, do not endorse, yadda, yadda...) ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/

Hi! that would be me. I don't stock many parts... just the ones that go into the computers I have for sale... which at this early point is pretty slim. I've been having a hard time selling Linux PC's in this economy, and making about 90% of my income fixing Windblows PCs for people. (I can't afford to stock things I can't sell...) We're open by appointment on weekends... I'll be there this evening doing some work. Not sure what time, but my sleep schedule is all messed up right now and I'm about to go to bed after a LONG day. The other drawback: We only take credit cards right now through PayPal. But the upside: We do have a few mobos in stock... all of one type... with RAM and chips available. They're AMD Sempron based... but I don't have the specs or prices handy. You can call the work number (in my sig) to see if I'm in the shop. If so, stop on in. If I'm there, we're open, no matter what the sign says.

Re: Looking for local mobo suppliers
OK, thanks I have already been there, sorry I forgot to mention that They don't take AMEX. I was looking for someone that took AMEX. Minor detail, but important to me. Chris On 11/15/08, Scott C.

Looking for local mobo suppliers
My 7yo Athlon system is dying, so it's time to upgrade... Are there any good motherboard/CPU/Memory suppliers local that might be open tomorrow? Thanks Chris -- IBA #15631 ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
