Still a lot of money given my billage this month! It'll have to wait until at least Feb. Thanks for the link tho.<BR/><BR/>To give you an idea, the Dell is 6 years old and has had 2 major repairs. The Mac is 4 5 years old and nada . . nuthin . . .just needs a good clean out and a new keyboard so I might get away with it once I clean it out.<BR/><BR/>Now, I'm just waiting for the BenchWarmer and Kahlerisms to put their best foot forward and all the geeks have had a go!<BR/><BR/>Cheers :)Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-62476106973205317492008-01-09T14:03:00.000+11:002008-01-09T14:03:00.000+11:002000$?

I guess the old girl is on her last legs!<BR/><BR/>Elly: thanks I did all that yesterday and it seems to be a bit better. It's the ol processing power that's just tired. I was finally able to burn all the big files to CD. We're definitely in the running for a new one I just want to make it last for a couple of months. Thanks for the tips tho!<BR/><BR/>Anonymous: (I hate anonymous commenters by the way!) Well of course! I have my washing up pyjamas, my hanging over the fence talking to neighbours pyjamas (which require me to allso wear rollers and carry a mop). Then there's the 'sleep over' pyjamas and the cats pyjamas!<BR/><BR/>Ropi: I've had this one since 2001 as well but it's been worked hard thanks to three people using it! But I have had to put in a new hard drive since then and replace the motherboard. Keep yours well maintained and it might last you a little longer! We manage a lot of images and videos on it so they take up heaps of space.Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-84074051335470248952008-01-09T03:10:00.000+11:002008-01-09T03:10:00.000+11:00My PC is the best.

If it's less than that, then delete some of the docs that you have backed up to CD.<BR/><BR/>Think of it like one of those little tile puzzles you get that have one empty space and you need to move around to make the correct image - if you don't have that one free space, then you can't do anything!<BR/><BR/>An option to think about when you are upgrading would be to purchase a pair of 250GB external hard drives for Drummerboy and Clarebear - they could keep any of their docs on those, they can stay beside the PC when in use, but they can also pick them up and take them away if they want to share the docs with someone else. This would allow you to keep control of the docs on the main PC and ensure you never run out of space again.<BR/><BR/>I know it would be an additional expense, but the prices have dropped a lot, so you should be able to pick up a pair for under $200 AUD.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34591549.post-12175644400544944542008-01-08T23:44:00.000+11:002008-01-08T23:44:00.000+11:00Do you use bad language?Modern technology is wonde...Do you use bad language?<BR/><BR/>Modern technology is wonderful - when it works!
