Syndicomm's sales have been surprisingly brisk.  In the six and a half 
months since our new online store went online, we have received 48 
orders (not counting orders rejected due to invalid payment information) 
via the online store, and almost as many via mail.

The average dollar value of our online orders is $47, with the maximum 
being $355.  I don't have nearly as good reporting capabilities for 
mailed orders; most of them are for lower dollar amounts (averaging 
probably about $8).

We don't charge our customers sales tax, although we do pay sales tax to 
the government -- we take it off the top of our profits, to save our 
customers time and money.

Syndicomm is marginally profitable right now, although this move will 
probably change that for a while, due to the added expenses (we've 
bought new servers, and we have installation and setup fees for our new 
ISP).

Anyway, thought I'd comment, even though it's off-topic.  It's possible 
to sell Apple II products in this day and age, but it's sure not easy. :)
