Computers for $25

So I made it in the local newspaper with a (bad) photo and an article about how we're selling the old computers in our school district for $25. Which I thought would be great since we've about 200 to get rid of. But then the phone starting ringing yesterday. The Detroit News wanted some details on it (I haven't seen today's paper to check that yet) and Fox2 News called too.

It's kinda cool that I made Fox2 News at 5:30 (not to be confused with Fox2 News at 5, Fox2 News at 6, Fox2 News at 10, Fox2 News at 10 rerun at 2 am or Fox2 News at 5am which runs until 9am and I haven't watched yet) where I got a short video/sound bite and video of stacks of computers but the problem is I'm afraid I might get more than 200 computer sales, plus Fox2 didn't mention the times and the sale today doesn't start until 1 PM. That'll be the hardest problem is people showing up early.

Maybe it will be fine but it's just hard to tell and it's always better to be prepared for the worst. It's Wednesday and Thursday too so maybe we won't have to run it those days. If you're interested in one just come give me the secret blogger handshake and I'll try and hook you up...

Better BlueTooth on Tiger 10.4.7

So apple just released a new 10.4.7 update to Tiger. The biggest things that excite me are:

Bluetooth file transfers, pairing and connecting to a Bluetooth mouse, and syncing to mobile phones
I'm really hoping this helps with Syncing to my new Sprint Treo 700p. More info at Apple (and more detailed info here).
