The hints, tips, advice and links on Basics4Mac.com are free to all users.
This is not a site run by a company with deep pockets to keep it going. I'm just one guy who loves Macs and wants to help others to learn how to best use their Macs. I create the content of the site in my spare time.
There are certain costs involved in running the site including site hosting and the purchase of new software and hardware to keep myself up to date. My hope is to be able to cover as much of those costs as possible. The more I can stay up to date with the Mac world, the better Basics4Mac becomes.
I am indebted to countless other people who freely share their knowledge on the web with me. To me, this is what the web was created for: people sharing what they know so others can learn. I often contribute small bits of time or money to those sites that help me the most.
There are a couple of ways that you can help support Basics4Mac:
Make any purchase from Amazon.com through the Basics4Mac website. Amazon sells far more than just books. I buy practically everything online from Amazon these days-- Books, software, cell phones, computers... the list goes on forever. Amazon has great prices and often has incredible rebates. When you purchase through the Amazon Store at Basics4Mac, I get a small percentage of the sale. (You, however, get the same great deals that you would if you went directly to the Amazon.com website.)
Donate a bit of cash to the cause through PayPal. You do not need to have an account with Paypal to send a donation.
