My computer has crashed.  Can't even complete check disk.  Will bring it in for repairs on Monday or so.  Unless my friend allows me to continue using her computer I will be MIA for a while.

I need a desk top computer with a large monitor because PA has vision problems.  That limits the options significantly.  Desktops are getting hard to find.  Fixing may be the better option.

Crap, wish you were closer.

Got one slated for scrapping sitting in the basement, and just pulled the boards from another that was working, but I don't have a use for....19"? LCD monitor sitting in the closet collecting dust.

Hooked the kids desktop up to his 32" LCD TV with an HDMI adapter cable...might be a good option for Pa?...or get a laptop with an HDMI output you can connect to a HDMI TV and use it as an external monitor.

Don't have any spare monitors at the moment but I could have provided you with a spare laptop. I have a couple of them around.

^ Yeah, send them an email.. and got one back stating it takes at least 3 days for the money to be transferred to their account. That was three days ago (the email exchange).

I ordered the Würthof knife (plus honing steel) July the 1st and the webshop is named Oldenhof. Because I don't 'do money' via the interwebz I had to pay up-front. 'Trouble' here is, I think, that the payment goes via another mediating bank and this probably is causing the delay.

Most shops just send the products with a paper transfer form on or in the box.. and then I fix that the same or the next day. Went okay every time.

Me, not a person with a great deal of patience, is another issue in this matter.. probably maybe and also too. It would (by far) the nicest and best knife in my kitchen to date.

:lutra: (= happy and impatient beforehand/kinda)

Oldenhof is a good shop. One of the shops I now and then walk into, when having to be in Zwolle. It has a calmness in the way the interior is, so a good escape, and lots of things on display will blow my mind. Either by the price, or by the simple fact that kitchen tools like that do exist.

Good shop? I take your word for it but unfortunately still no extra news from them. It has been two frikkin' weeks now. Iz wants me knife!

Have never visited their shop but I can imagine it would be nice.. for I tend to like such shops.. albeit not a big fan of shopping in general.

Two weeks ago I was in Utrecht (on a hot Sunday).. and Joseph's scrotum.. that was awful.. and crowded with peopsies. 'Done my bizz' and got the fart out of there.

Stop feeding them. :GA:

...or you could tell them that there's a stomach bug going around at work and you fear you might be catching it.  >:D

If THAT doesn't work you're doomed. :zoinks:

Or invite some I2 members over, to either mingle gloomily with the guests or bore them away with monologues about obsessions.  :nerdy: :voodoo:

My dentist changes his magazines too quickly. Not even a month ago, I got half way a nice article, and three days ago, the magazine wasn't there any more.

There were new magazines of various types though. I delved into a magazine about coaching, and the use of language by coaches. Was funny.
