 Dr. Digit 'Splains It All
After years of being a PC guy I was accused of going over to the dark side when I added a little Macbook to our network. Even before that I had thought that iTunes was the best of the MP3 organizing programs even if you didn't buy songs from the iTunes store. And once I finally succumbed and got an iPod I was blown away by the effortless synergy between that device and the computer. But there was a disconnect between the computer and the place in our house where we actually listen to music.
Enter the Airport Express and AirTunes. Airport Express is a little white box that fits in the palm of your hand. You plug it into the wall and connect a cable from it to your setero, any place in your house. You run a little utility on your computer to set it up. And Presto! iTunes automatically senses the gadget, giving you the option to play your music on the stereo, your computer speakers, or both.

Tons of building materials, computers, electronics, house wares, furniture, and other goods are thrown away every day even though their usable life is far from over. Finger Lakes ReUse saves materials from going to the landfill and provides quality goods at affordable prices.
