80s nerd computers was: Re: Regret
Um.....as usual I am jumping into this thread really late...
I am looking for a home for a wonderful little mac named "puter". She
is a Performa 550 and she comes with a printer and lots of software and
a bunch of other stuffs. I just want her to go to a good home, that is
all...she is entirely free...and perhaps I would be willing to even pay
part of the shipping costs.
In light of this thread I am posting this to the list.....I was
intending to put it on ebay but I have never gotten around to it.
Does anyone want to give this poor little gal a good home?
