Lee, Thanks so much for the long ride. I first discovered our little group when you and Tom Guenthner managed a bulletin board which I accessed with a dial up modem from my Apple //e. When Apple came out with the Apple //e enhanced model Tom upgraded my computer.
One of my favorite memories was the group (led by Lee and Tom) building a 60mb hard drive for group members. You found a box, cables, controller board, and hard drive the computer shopper and we met at someone’s house and you helped us put it all together. It cost us about $500 per unit. I used that drive on my Apple //e. When I got my first Mac I reformatted it and used it with my Mac. I remember meetings at the Mac Store on Breckinridge Lane - it’s now Simply Mac and they have moved from that location. We moved to the government center on Shelbyville Rd. I think at some point the membership dwindled and then you, Lee, set up this list serve. To everyone who has ever submitted a question to the group and/or supplied an answer a heartfelt Thank-you. And to Lee we ALL owe you a huge thanks and a round of applause for all the time and effort you spent setting up the group and answering questions. See you in the could.
