Sure I can swing by tomorrow. You can send me a personal email with
place and time.
Also if Jason doesn't have a charger for the Macbook Pro and doesn't
want it anymore I'll take it. The one we are using is actually pretty
similar and I can use it's charger and switch between them.
Also I would be attending the next KWLUG meeting and tomorrow I can
take anything for anyone that would also attend and bring them on the
meeting.
In fact I've been planing to visit the Recycling Center at some point,
so I can take the stuff for them and bring them also.
Looking forward.
Cheers
