MTFCA Forum

My obsolete laptop's obsolete browsers won't open this website, so I won't be posting anything here while I'm in Chickasha. There will now be a brief pause for everyone to ask, "Who cares?"

What will we ever do? From the west coast, have fun at your big meet...

I, for one will miss your "on the ground" reports, Steve. I enjoy seeing what goes on in these meets I'll never travel to. Good luck, have fun, and I hope you'll post some photos when you return home.

Have a great time Steve. I wish I was going. I'm sure your report and photos will be wonderful when you get back.
Stay safe and have fun.

We have to wait 2 weeks fellas, if he is driving the T.

Probably only 10 days. Word has it he finally found high gear….

I'll be lookin' fer ya.

Please report before you head to OCF.

WE care! Drive safe, enjoy! I wish I was going.

We do care, you are the modern day Samuel Langhorne Clemens of MTFCA, and love the Dauntless Geezer

Just keep that camera strapped to your arm so you can post pictures when you get the chance.

Here's where our smartphones shine. Computer (albeit tiny) in the palm of your hand.
What can be better than that?

Is there a way our mods can help a friend get back online with his old Mac computer?
I slide by on a Linux platform using antiquated browsers.
We know Steve's reports are fantastic.

Steve,a local computer geek is taking old laptops,cleaning all the software off of them and installing a generic google chrome and it works good. I have a very old Compaq laptop and he put that system on it for 50 bucks and it does youtube,this site,all the browsing you want to.
No "word processing" and such though.Just think generic chrome book.

Again, all he needs is a smartphone, decent mobile data, and of course almost every restaurant has free wifi. He'd be good to go. I'm using my phone to post this, and almost always do.

Is it time for the milk carton yet?

When the cat's away the mice will play! Safe trip Steve

You know stubbornness will only get U so far and it’s not far at all. I’ve been using my Iphone7 for many years and brand new ones are available on e bay for well under $200. Best damn camera I’ve ever owned. It’s all he’d need. More power in that one small outdated phone than all the stuff he insists on playing with. He needs an upgrade.

Have a safe trip Steve. The fact that you are not posting photos may entice more to show up to see what's going on.

Thats ok Steve, we really dont miss you.

STEEEEVE !!!! wHERE ARE YOU ???? ITS KINDA BORING HERE WITHOUT YOU !!!! BE SAFE .

AS Steve is our unofficial traveling reporter, I suggest we take up a collection and get him an updated confuser.

frontyboy

I seen him.
He's there!
: ^ )

So did others! From Kathy Tagert post on the Model T Ford Club of Facebook page;

I doubt if Steve’s MAC can be converted to the Chrome OS. However, if you have an old laptop, it’s a simple DIY project with the steps outlined here: https://www.pcworld.com/article/393375/ ... ebook.html . This also allows you use a two boot startup where you can select Chrome or Windows until you’re sure you want to switch.

That said, my wife and I just dropped off two Chromebooks to our grandkids as early birthday presents. They have to give theirs back to the school at semester end so we paid $200 each for two from Costco where they are currently on sale.

To stay on topic, that is how I spent my Chickasaw money. I will be bringing two Model A wheels home for my son and I met a founding member of the MARC where I am currently staying. So even though I didn’t get to Oklahoma, I enjoyed my vacation.

I don't know you, I've never met you, but......
