[TDPH] Ready - Set - Let's G-R-O-W!

Hello, my Family

The TDPH Board and my blade hosts have spent some time & funds over the last year or so to "replenish" my parts gone south..

Current Blades Inventory

We have learned a lot about stability in components.
We've also learned about buying with the future in mind.

Quad & Dual Core systems have tremendously come down in price over the last few months.

I want to grow stronger..I need your help.

We will grow together

We will cure dreaded diseases.

TDPH would like to consider some replacements of older boards as outlined here in our Chairman's Report:

»[TDPH] Project Hope Chairman's Report - Time for change!

---This will of course involve, donations - to stock the TDPH Treasure Chest---

There is no minimum, nor maximum - Every bit counts!
No donation too large or too small.


For reference, some past successful growth spurts that our membership helped with are here (in no particular order):

»[TDPH] The Great Pumpkin Giveaway
»Every Bit Of Thunder
»Grow TDPH Grow
»Just how much Mojo can you get for 10 bucks?
»A challenge to all members!
»To My Family
»TDPH - My Challenge


*Future thought is being given as well to another Giveaway raffle(s), terms to be announced at a later date

Ready - Set - Let's G-R-O-W!

Just a quick update. First, thanks to everyone who has donated! We now have $550. Pretty good! That's close to what we'll need for one new cruncher. We'd really like to at least double that so we can purchase 2 new blades to replace 4 of our older blades. Remember you'll be getting those tax rebate checks soon!

And, you have 12 hours left to donate and be eligible to win some silver - »TDPH Challenge - Donate and win some silver!

I saw the deal on the Dell 530 over at Fatwallet. »www.fatwallet.com/t/18/821816/

24" Monitor included... May work out to be cheaper if the monitor is sold off. Just thought I'd mention it.

That is a possibility. Don't know how well monitors sell on eBay, and the monitor quality itself would be the determining factor.

Did read through the link you provided, and someone posted that the additional 10% discount has expired.

Thank you everyone. We pulled in enough cash to take advantage of the latest deal. We will soon have a brand new Dell Core 2 Quad Processor Q6600 with 3 gigs of Ram. Purchased for $489.79 shipped.

We now have close to $200 left. If we get $300 more in donations in the next 12 hours, we can get another! The deal ends at 6am central time on Monday.

Re: [TDPH] Ready - Set - Let's G-R-O-W!

That deal may be over..but there's another starting.

C'mon folks..I know we can do this.
If everyone gave $5 - we'd have a few of these beauties crunchin' under us. There is no donation too large or too small.

One quad = 4 of our current blades.

We are Team Discovery - and we will find cures!

I'll accept that $5 challenge and have made my donation. I can think of no better investment to finding cures, and those quad-core machines will definitely get the job done.

Together we can do this!

Fed the monkey via "PayPal" rather than check. But I think it's time to feed the monkey again so...sending a check more bananas tomorrow.

If everyone will just dig a little deeper ... Together we can hit $500 and have another blade.
