Dear Friends,

While Don and Grace are enjoying warm breezes as they ride their motorcycles to New Orleans, I’m back in Vermont buried in snow. The calendar says spring in only days away, but it’s hard to believe that looking outside the office windows. There is a plus side to all the snow, the skiing has been incredible! I am thoroughly enjoying my weekends on the slopes and even more delighted that both of my kids can now join me. This winter I taught my youngest how to ski and she’s already comfortable cruising down the mountain from the summit. I can see I have a daredevil on my hands as she has eyes for mini-woods runs and already has a few favorite side trips.

Last week I was fortunate enough to travel to Austin Texas for a few days for the ASMC conference. This is a time for Apple authorized resellers and service locations to get together and share information and products face to face. These group interactions are valuable not only for gaining new insight on opportunities within our businesses, but it’s also a time to be introduced to new ideas. I always feel regenerated after these trips and I have already begun to utilize some of the information I gained last week with the team.

Leave your laptop behind with this week’s Kibbles & Bytes exclusive special! I have bunded a 10.5in 256gb iPad Pro with the perfect accessories for a slimmed down office. I’ve added the Apple Smart Keyboard, an extra wall charger, lightning cable, a lightning to AV adapter, iKlear and of course, AppleCare+. You won’t miss your laptop with this bundle. This normally sells for $1152.93, but for Kibbles & Bytes readers you can get it for $1099.99.
