Hey db...welcome back.. Did you see the new crayon sign

Ears for everyone
I hope you like yours... they're green
Stop by again

Gobble Gobble and toss the salad.

Just checking in. Had the computer in the shop. Supposedly it's all fixed up but the same problem just recurred a few minutes ago. Cost me $140 to get it fixed."fixed" ha. The shop told me that really, I need a new computer and it'll only cost me $1100. Which, frankly, is a deal. Too bad that $1100 is already committed to something else I believe I just must have.

yeah, my ticket to AC !

seems a tad high for new puter SS....

Not up here. The same system purchased elsewhere would be around $1700.

Oh, it's the package, includes 17" flat spacesaver screen, keyboard, mouse, software including firewall. Does it still sound like too much? I'm so computer illiterate.

I bought my current package a couple of years ago. It was a rebuilt and cost me $600 for the whole shebang. It came with Windows ME loaded. According to the techie that's more than half my problem.

...I don't know Seashell, my ME broke down acouple of weeks ago. Too many microsoft viruses was my guess. Beware those Chinese emails.

I was and sometimes still do have computer problems as I'm sure we all do. I recently deleted a lot of the windows security updates and this bugger is working a lot better. I turned off the security updates as they would try to load again. Try it, it may help. I kept the security service pack 2 update.

I don't know how to do any of that stuff myself and wouldn't dare. That's why I paid the techie to do it. He says the ME is not being supported anymore.

And Bill, I don't open the Chinese emails. Why do you?

The other half of the problem may have been when it went klunk on the floor.....keep singing

$1700 US? steep

If you're in the USA, WalMart should be having their T-day sale very shortly...IF PCs on sale they should be about $500 for a basic PC with current MS software. ME hasn't been supported for while.

Hi Seashell: I always think those Chinese emails are fortunes...without the cookie. bill
