About Me

Where do I start? Well, I've been an Apple user since 1989 when I bought a used powerbook 100and was amazed at the ease of use compared to a typical PC. Eventually the powerbook broke so being who I am, naturally I took it apart and fixed it in a matter ofhours (I'm a natural) so I started to repair them.

The Apple Newton, which came out in 1993, was a handheld device akin to the Palm Pilot but had a bigger screen and actually recognized your hand writing and converted it into text. I bought one for my videography business for scheduling. I later found that there was a market for used ones. That was when I started my first online business called The PDA Connection in which I repaired and sold Newtons.

I became a Newton guru spending countless hours fixing and modifying them, even after it was discontinued in 1998, but when the iPod came out in 2001, I instantly fell in love with it! Imagine a music player the size of a deck of cards and holding 5GB's of music! I immediately took it apart and found my new online business.

On another note, Living way up here in the north country you can't live on one job alone, so I do what I love most and that is graphic arts. As former graphic artist for the Berlin Reporter, I've been doing it professionally for 12 years and an artist (oil painting) since the age of 10.

Recently I became a partner for a new newspaper venture called The NH Outdoor Gazette www.nhoutdoorgazette.com. I am president and owner of the NH Monte Carlo Club www.nhmontecarloclub.com. I've built all my websites and plan on getting into video production again at some point in time (probably when I retire). I hope you found this interesting and I appreciate your reading this to find out about me and welcome your business. Feel free to email me any time.

Dan
