[vcf-midatlantic] Mac G4 Quicksilver -- free to a good home (NJ)

[William Dudley]

Mike,

I have no idea what your schedule looks like, but I'm retired, so I
can meet anytime.
That said, I have a dentist appointment in Red Bank tomorrow at 4PM.  Assuming
you can get over there during the day, we could meet either before or after my
appointment.

Another possibility is to meet at the Asian Grocery in Marlboro, at
which I will be
shopping on Friday.

If you're working during the day and can't meet at either of these times, we can
meet in Freehold or Marlboro some evening after you get off work.

Let me know,
Bill Dudley
