Subject: [Exi-bay-chat] Recommended computer repair shop?
Message-ID: <43A21743.5080301@pobox.com>

Does anyone have a trusted computer repair shop in the rough vicinity of 
Santa Clara?  Hopefully not too pricey for straightforward jobs, but I'm 
also concerned with their not accidentally setting my computer on fire.

Thanks, local friends!

Hi folks -- I've already bought a 2006 Season Pass.
I'd love to have some people from my various
affinity groups to go to the park with sometimes,
and this looks like a good deal.  I figure I'll get
my value out of going to see the IMAX films and
weekend fireworks if nothing else.

Hurray for roller coasters and other shiny stuff!
Kennita
