Can't add much to the neebee kudos already posted. Selfless and giving seems to summarize it.
I'm in for $100 towards a new lappy. But I never really understood the problem. Was it access to the net or hardware problems?
Edit: it appears neebee was having problems updating her netzero account.

I'd be willing to coordinate the collection of fundage from the taco and forwarding it on to neebee for a new lappy. Someone else needs to give her technical advice on what to buy. We probably also need to help set up a ISP account. Again, some techie would be better at that than I.
If this works for the taco, let me know.

Lizzy is a real sweetheart - I wish I had some money to pony up. It warms my heart to see you all kicking in to help one of the kindest, most thoughtful people on our forum.
She is the only person to EVER send a real card, it was for our engagement.
Neebee rocks!

Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
And covering the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
But mama, you been on my mind

We should do a Facelift collection for sure. Fatty or Anders can hold it all and 'process' it to Neebee.
Somebody honest could process PayPal donations to her too. That'd be easiest for non-Facelifters. Once the Paypal account was done, cut her a check or money-order.
I think the Facelifters should be able to raise enough though.
Or non-facelifters can send money to Facelifters and donate that way. I dunno, I'm just thinkin'...
Too good of a woman to leave hangin'!

Neebee finally has a new computer, but what I think is really holding her up is dialup. I've helped her a bit with processing some book files and we end up mailing them back and forth, because her internet speed is slow.
She's tight on money, as are many people! I wonder if some of us are willing to help get Neebee on a faster internet connection? I can put in a bit of cash and I see that others on this thread have offered to help in the past with a computer. What about hooking her up with broadband?
I looked up ISPs near where she lives and AT&T seems to be a good bet.
http://articles.directorym.com/Broadband_Internet_Top_5_Providers_Muskegon_MI-r907-Muskegon_MI.html
I'm proposing we subscribe Neebee to DSL, and pay the 1st year at $19.95 (1st 12 months).
That's about $240, plus $75 for a modem, which there's a rebate for. After the initial year, the monthly fee is $24.95. Maybe we can do a 2nd year?
I don't want to collect funds myself. Am willing to help with anything technical, and if others have recommendations for other broadband providers, please post up. Is there anyone willing to take care of receiving money? other suggestions?
