Apple Forever Support Project is a group of Macintosh enthusiasts who are tired of the Apple bashing and decided to do something about it.

The members of the group came together from the "For thunderlizards to change the world via great products and marketing" list and formed a partnership. The members have organized, hired a stockbroker and bought stock in Apple computers. By buying stock in Apple they feel they are showing that they believe in the future of Apple, and are putting "their money where their mouths are".

The buying and long term holding of stock in Apple is only one way in which they are showing their support of Apple. They are involved in other "Thunderlizardry" ways of doing this also.

If you would like to participate and become a member you need to do a few things:

  1. Read the partnership agreement.
  2. Read the forms for E*Trade, our stock broker, and the personal information form.
  3. If you agree with these, then print all the forms from the Sample Forms Page.
  4. Fill out and sign the forms, and the signature page of the partnership agreement (you only need to return the last page of the agreement, signed of course ;last page begins where it says ****from here****).
  5. Make out a cheque for $10.00 to Apple Forever Support Project for the organizational costs. If you want to invest in stock, make a separate cheque to AFSP and mark it "Investment".
  6. Mail the forms, the signature page of the partnership agreement, and your cheque(s) to Pia Oliver, PO Box 93, Santa Barbara, CA 93102.

  8. Please make sure that you have read the partnership agreement and understand it, and how the stock buying works. Simply stated, the group buys and holds stock according to the same rules that an investment club does. The formulas and principles for this are formulated by the National Association of Investment Club, and are simple to follow. If you have any questions, please contact:
