the NMUG? with Jean guy? no they stoped doing it for years sadly enough. i get in touch with Jean guy some time to time, but i haven't heard anything about the NMUG. Sad though as it was a fun group. not sure if someone took over. i'll have to do some research.

Another Van Isle refugee? Yes, the Mac situation here has always been sad.

I assume you have the same 3 or 4 people you HAVE to go to if you can't get something online.

Shame we are SO CHEAP here. In the 90s when I first came to Vic I assumed it would be MAC-HEAVEN!!!

Nope. ALmost no one then had them and there was one shop in Vic that was horrible.

Apple Store in Richmond - I haven't gone there yet ...maybe a pilgrimage this year!

And reason for this reply ... is there a MAC (God-forbid) First Class UG list???

I wiulkd search but better get it from The Tribe here!

You might want to try Simply Computing and see what they have, as they used to have a tech there that used to pack away a few old specialty things knowing that someone would likely need them at some point, and also EB Computers which might be a more likely place for finding what you want regarding older Mac stuff:

Good luck. Both excellent Mac computer stores IMO.

And good grief,
There might be one left still running on Noah's Ark if you can find it floating by somewhere...
I would be surprised if the FC software would even run on even the first version of Mac OS X and an old very out-of-date Mac. ;-)

Yep know those two stores well. Very nice folks. And excellent stores.

Yeah, First Class eh?

I still shake my head at opportunities missed.
