Nov 6th 2008

Well folks just about another week shot. Bought a new computer system for the boss (The one with the skirt) last night, (Ya Walli*Mart) $279.00 man they are getting cheap and I can not build them for that. Included Keyboard and mouse (which we scrapped as it was a roller ball type)

No monitor but we latched on to a 20.1" LCD monitor as well. Her system was fast going out of date and she was having a lot of problems with it and I suspect it was mainly hardware related. Not particularly fussy on Vista as an operating system, but, we will try and work with it. Sandy seems to like it so that is a good thing.

Hey Guy, you tried several times over and spent the better part of four days trying to fix a computer that stopped running it's Norton, re-booted whenever it felt like it, kept telling me that it recovered a missing Registry entry, and had a Java/Windows incompatibility problem since the last windows security update or service pack....who knows. Your time is more valuable than that and it was a heart breaker to see you come home from work and go at my computer solidly for the evening only to have them happen all over again.
It was pretty bad when I chose to clean as apposed to using the computer Loll!!
Do you think you broke a record this time in the number of rebuilds you did in yea so many days??
Seriously though....Vista isn't so bad......phishing filter......that's a new one!

My system is coming to a crashing halt - slower than slow, and just in time for me to put the money into a good laptop I can take wherever I go ... was looking at some with large enough screens for workspace, and it's not that horrible.

Sometimes you just got to scrap the rebuilding, break down and go get another one.

Seriously though Vista?

Hi ya Folks.

Gary bought a new lap top with Vista and he likes it. He says that Vista is ok on new machines but horrible to install on old ones.

I've been looking at these tiny little lap tops (linex) i think? You could almost put them in your hand bag and that way I could write all my reports and such where ever I plop myself down.

Gary paid £499 for his..which converts to about $1000 canadian..but we seem to pay double for everything over here :o(

Love ya guys!
