For three days only, Karol Gajda is running an absolutely great deal on a pack of 17 ebooks on minimalism and simplicity by the likes of Leo Babauta of Zen Habits, Joshua Becker of Becoming Minimalist, and Everett Bogue of Far Beyond The Stars.

To get in on this deal click here.

So what’s the big deal? Karol is launching his latest work, the Luxury of Less, and got several authors to jump in on the fun by including their popular ebooks in the sale.

Normally these ebooks sell between $5 and $20 apiece, so the whole pack is worth over $224 if purchased separately.

Personally I’ve had my eye on Becker & Babauta’s work, as they teach about living simply & minimalism in a way that is practical for families as well as the young, single traveler (which seems to be a popular brand of minimalism lately).

I picked up the bundle on the first day and was happy to get the latest works by Tammy Strobel and Adam Baker, as well.

So check it out while there is still time (October 6th is the last day of the sale).

These photos [...]

We’re a household of computer users, and more and more we’re finding that we could be using multiple machines simultaneously.  We purchased a Dell laptop this summer (runs Vista) which has helped some. I’ve been wanting to get a file server up and running to free up space on the Mac mini (too much media [...]

Well I finally found a deal on an Apple TV on eBay. If you’ve been thinking about getting one, now is a great time as several have been listed lately. I went for the 40GB model since it will mostly be used to stream content from my Mac, so no need for huge drive space, [...]

I’ve always wanted to post that.  It may not be Keynote day, but the Apple Store is down in order to get ready for their big Black Friday sale. Hopefully they’ll have some screamin’ deals.

Well it has been a month now, and I love the Panasonic Viera plasma that we purchased in October.  The picture is really great, has just enough inputs, the menus are easy to use, the speakers are decent sounding, and overall it has been a very enjoyable upgrade from our 19″ CRT television. For the [...]
