Dear Friends,
The mid-terms are over! I believe the mixed results are encouraging. The most representative part of our democracy is now more diverse than ever with more women, more people of color, more gay people, more native Americans, and more Muslims. This is very encouraging. While there were some big disappointments with Beto O’Rourke and Andrew Gillum, there were many encouraging signs. Here in my congressional district, Debbie Mucarsel-Powell flipped a seat and back in Vermont, Bernie got another term and their legislature now has a Democratic supermajority. Clearly, more work to do but definite steps in the right direction.
We have started to get the new Mac Minis, MacBook Airs and new iPad Pros into the stores and now that we have them unboxed and on display, I can say that they are simply fantastic! Now I really want to upgrade my iPad Pro and will do so once our backorders are filled.
I would like to virtually introduce our new Director of Corporate Sales, Alicia Prince. She has tons of experience in the Apple world and is tasked with building our B2B business. If you know of opportunities in the corporate world, I am sure Alicia would love to hear from you.
This week’s Kibbles & Bytes Exclusive features two special buys on a Mac Pro. Both of these units are configure-to-order units and have Apple warranty. One is a brand new unit with a rough shipping box but perfect contents. It has the Intel 2.7GHz 12-core processor, 64GB of ram, 1TB SSD storage and the D700 video. This high-end Mac Pro normally sells for $6999.99 but one lucky Kibbles & Bytes reader can have this amazing Mac Pro for $2000 off at $4999.99!
The other Mac Pro is a demo that is covered by AppleCare until 9/26/2020. It is also a high-end configuration with the 3.0 GHz E5 8-core processor, 64GB of ram, a 1TB SSD storage and the D700 with 64GB of video ram. This one sells for around $6000 with AppleCare but this week you can buy this demo for only $4499.99!
I hardly ever eat seafood in Vermont because, well, there is no ocean within 150 miles. I am spoiled by Key West where the sea surrounds us and every restaurant offers freshly caught seafood. I was reading the paper this morning and I think I might go observe Key West’s version of the hot dog eating contest, the stone crab-eating contest. Did you know that stone crab claws actually grow back on the crabs that they are harvested from, making them a renewable food resource?
The powerboats are in town this week so I might take a ride down to the waterfront to watch some races this weekend. Or maybe I will just go to the beach.
I took some nice drone shots of the fall foliage before I left and I had a couple printed out by Shutterfly. They are now on the wall to remind us of beautiful Vermont. We are so lucky to live in two beautiful places.
