John Bower 20 year owner of Santa Cruz
Electronics joins the geeks for a disscussion of
computer hobbyists vs mainstream consumers. Tune in to hear all about
the trends of computer upgrades and purchaces.
John Bower had a great attitude towards his buisness and to
serving geeks in Santa Cruz. The company is focused on supporting
IS() departments and works on supporting consultants
by billing end companies directly.
This show was a lot of fun, a full house of giddy geeks. In
general it was fun to talk about a change from soldering hobbyists to
a world of small computers and high-end video cards.

Does Santa Cruz Electronics have kits for FM transmitters?
Santa Cruz Electronics has kits, possibly FM transmitter kits.
Also Darren will need to get a kit with a stereo encoder in order
to have a stereo signal.

In the SC area is there a store/organization that takes computer
equipment (older) for refurbish or donation?
None that we know of, but there is a move to make a county wide
program for computer reuse. There used to be a group called
Give-a-byte, but it does not exist because they didn’t have a
place to operate.

Soldering and radio hobbiest are alive and well in Santa Cruz.
