Running the Store

Here's a list of stuff to do if you're running the Thrift Store. Use your store volunteers well. Don't forget to check out our Store Prices (although they should be posted by the register as well).

Here's a list of the things you should be doing in the store besides running the cash register:

Processing Store Boxen

When a store box comes in it should have its very own build sheet with it.

1. Make an index card with the following info:
   • Processor and speed
   • RAM
   • Hard drive size
   • Video, sound, NIC, modem?
   • Passwords
   • OS
   • Price (look at other boxes to figure out a good price)
2. Tape the price tag to the box and put it out
3. Give the build sheet to the nice folks at the front desk. They'll be sure the info gets into the database.

Sorting SCSI cards

Cards to eliminate:

• Really old ISA cards with the beefy connector port
• BusLogic on chipset
• Missing faceplate/somthing's broken

Keep:

• Everything else - Adaptec cards are standard/good
• Especially good cards: Adaptec "AHA-2940" cards. These should probably be priced a little higher. They're widely-used and last a long time.
