Is there anyway to actually purchase mugs or t-shirts and actually support Patrick?

The reason I asked was I remember reading recently that he was getting screwed from a store.

Yes. That's true. Patrick was getting ripped off by another Slackware store. The store I linked to is fine.

Ok. I didn't want to mess with the store that was ripping him off.

I used to purchase a subscription from Walnut Creek CD-Rom.

Can I suggest Patrick add non flippy logo designs?

That was the predecessor of the store that has now been DIScontinued.

Indeed, since the standard logo doesn't look like 'Slackwars'.

Yeah, I'd like to get another shirt with the standard Slackware logo design, as well as another baseball cap.

Donating normally and making my own design was the way to go for me.
Gotta have that Dobbshead on the mug, you know? See his smile and that classy blocky font design (not a fan of that curly one in the shop...).

This is actually a great idea. I found a website that does this in the UK and which has good reviews. The prices are very reasonable, so that if one were worried about the proceeds not going to Pat, one could make a donation to him of equal amount.

I wonder why he doesn't use Amazon to sell Slackware stuff? Since most people have an Amazon account, imo it would be convenient for people, and you can just buy using a gift card. I see some Slackware products on Amazon but as far as I know he gets nothing from the sellers on there.
