After stopping in the middle of the day the snow started up again not long ago, and is coming down in a rather determined fashion.

After speaking with my computer people I decided the business must've been sold. There were just no good vibes. When Connie was here I asked her, as her son Sam worked there for a little while.
Me: Was TOGI sold?
Con: Yes. Sam used to work there!
Me: (spluttering) I KNOW -- that's why I asked you.

NOW WHAT? Trustworthy and interesting computer businesses don't grow on trees. They built all the computers I ever owned. I think brand name computers are crap. I liked them, too, because it was a woman-owned business. I'd wander in every few years and explain what I was going to use the computer for (last two were for video editing, this one is for Second Life), and they would put together a system. I'd wrangle over a few oddments (how much MORE would it be if I got...), they'd build it. I never quibbled over anything, and they were wonderful to me.
