[NPMUG] I'm in da Workshop, fixin' yer eMac.

[Marty Swartz]

OK, Mister Donaldson Sir.  Now you've done it. Call me out in public, will
ya? OK, the game is ON!!!

If anyone (and I mean ANYONE) can bring forth one or two failed or sickly
eMacs, I will indeed demonstrate how to get 'er done in a timely, pleasant,
and muttering-free manner. First on a Friday session at the CRC, and once at
a NPMUG meeting to be announced. Right out in front of Fitz, God, and
Everybody.

If there is an individual out there sitting on a bad-capacitor eMac, and you
are the FIRST to get it into my hands, I will repair yours for FREE. Not
just an email response, but the first one actually into my hands. I live in
Pittsburgh's Regent Square neighborhood, and I work at the University of
Pittsburgh. If any other individuals need a bad-cap eMac repaired, I will be
glad to do it for one single
Benjamin<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_one_hundred-dollar_bill>,
parts included. Can't beat that with a stick.

So there.
