Dear Friends,
Snow Leopard mania! We’ve been scrambling to get Snow Leopard upgrades, Snow Leopard Family Packs, Snow Leopard Mac Box Sets and Snow Leopard Mac Box Set Family Packs into stock for the Friday launch. We have the inventory ready to go, so if you placed a pre-order or made the 3PM ET order cut off today, we have started shipping them now!
This is the most affordable upgrade in some time at only $29.99. While there are not the same “wow” applications such as Time Machine in this upgrade, the important “under the hood” changes are significant in terms of stability, speed, security and over-all performance. I highly recommend this very affordable upgrade!
We had a tremendous tax-free holiday here in Vermont. We did about 10% more business this year in a single day than we did in the two-day holiday last year. We had lines at our doors at the opening at 8AM and were answering the phones until midnight. Both stores were jammed and the Small Dog team was on the very top of it game so we had a lot of fun talking to our customers and making sure every customer received personal attention.
I worked up in the S. Burlington store most of the day with my partner, Hammerhead, who served as the official “greeter.” He occupied the kids while the parents shopped. He was so tired when we got home that he crashed out on the couch and didn’t even come to bed at night. It’s his birthday today, by the way, so in honor of that, we’ve put our Hammerhead sleeves on sale (50% off) through the weekend!
The first mention of the “F” word was in the weather forecast last night. That is, F as in frost! The low-lying mountain hollows can expect some frost, yikes! We haven’t really had summer yet so now we are in for cooler temps that are normal by the end of August. But hey, it is sweet corn season and Artie took the day off today to help out in haying.
