For those of you who have been keeping up on the situation with dickday's computer, he finally called just a few minutes ago.

He will accept the computer with more gratitude than he is able to express. As it stands right now, it looks like the computer that Face was offering in his initial post (THANK YOU for getting the ball rolling, Face!) will not work, but Seashell has one that will and she has been rehabbing it today. She will ship it to him. "Thepeoplechoose" has a 19" monitor that will be shipped, as well.

Old Grouch will be going to help him set it up if he needs help. He already has broadband, so it sounds like purchasing that for him will not be necessary.

I don't know how much the shipping will run, but Barefooted will be handling the money end of things and will do a post if we need to take up a collection for that...If, for some reason, the used computer falls through, we will be asking for donations to come up with another one, but at least he has accepted the offer to get him up and running and we'll work out any details as it is necessary.

That is my best info at the moment...if anything I wrote is incorrect, please let me know.

Bottom line, DD should be back to us soon! He can hardly wait, and I know we can't either!!!

Thanks to all of you who contributed time, energy, ideas, and made offers to help financially or just gave moral support. We done good, guys! I'm proud of us all...

PLEASE REC SO EVERYONE CAN SEE WHERE WE STAND ON THIS!
