  • Meet Lonnie

    If you’ve ever taken a trip to the South Burlington store, there’s probably one person you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting yet, and that’s Lonnie. He’s the Inventory Controller in South Burlington.

    Lonnie has been in control of the shipping and receiving that goes on in our busiest location, and does it all with incredible efficiency. He also has a good knowledge base of everything Apple, Windows, and even knows a little bit about Linux, which means he’s able to handle most questions our customers are able to throw at him.

    When he’s not filling orders, or getting product out onto the floor, he works as a freelance writer for Slide to Play, a website dedicated to games for the iPhone and the iPad. He also has his own website, which shows everything he’s produced for the internet, including original content related to 8-bit gaming.

    If you’re in the area, and you happen to see Lonnie out on the floor, don’t be afraid to walk up to him and say hello. But beware, if you scare him off, it’ll mean 6 more months of winter…

  • Meet Mike Dalius

  • Celebrate Those Dads & Grads!

    This is an exciting time of year; for many of us, it means that grass is finally turning green and flowers are blooming everywhere you look. And for our readers farther south, this time of year brings a little bit of peace and quiet to your days as many of the snow birds have gone home (at least until the next round of dreary cold weather makes its inevitable return)!

    But no matter where you are reading this, Spring means more than just a change of scenery. It’s the beginning of some very big leaps in life and for many, it’s graduation season — and we want to celebrate it big! We wanted to send a special issue to you to preview what we’ve got going on for the Dads, Grads (and Moms) in your lives!

    **From May 19th to June 30th,** we’re celebrating with savings on everything from Macs and iPads to the accessories that make the package complete. Not sure exactly what your high school grad needs for school in the fall? No problem! Our retail staff can help you find the computer that’s the right fit — everything from software to often-forgotten necessities like backup drives.

    This year we are offering **$100 off any Mac purchase with AppleCare,** and a free Hammerhead sleeve. We have **Canon printers** ??(MX522 and MG5420 models)?? **for $50** when purchased with the computer bundle (in total, **save up to $180 on a Mac bundle**). We are also offering **$30 off all iPads** — and you’ll save even more if you buy a case (up to **$75 off**). Plus, we’re offering 0% financing for qualified buyers with no minimum purchase!

    Wishing everyone a healthy and safe graduation season!
