Mike - Instead of all this talk about saying goodbye to FA, which you are free to do if you want to, it sounds like you are in a tight spot and could use a hand. You should tell us what kinds of parts you need. I am betting we all have enough stuff sitting around in our collective sparesbins to build several systems.
I have an AMD 1600+ built on top of a K7 Pro LE mainboard, for instance, that has onboard audio and USB, supports USB to USB networking, and can accept up to 1.5 GB PC133 SD RAM. The thing is just sitting around right now, and it's still in warranty. I believe I also still have several 512 MB SDRAM chips sitting around too, and a 300 Watt power supply, multiple NIC cards, several obsolete Geforce 3 cards, some 10-20B IDE hard drives, two or three CD Burners, a DVD-ROM, a zip drive, a bunch of logitech Web cams, multiple keyboards, mice, infrared sensors, PDAs w/ craddles that just need batteries, wires & cables (some of which have funny plugs that are not supported by anything anymore), etc. And this is just in my closet. I would be happy to be part of a community initative to get Mike back up and running. Mike, I have to ask, was any of your stuff still covered under warranty? I was able to replace my motherboard after it was fried recently no questions asked.

As many of you know, my computer went down last friday. I've been trying to make due with this tiny laptop (literally tiny) and hating it. Just got the results back. Catastrophic failure of everything except the CPU. No ram, HD, MB or anything else. This also means that all my data for the last half dozen years or so is probably lost unless I can get it recovered. Add to that a small issue that the pain I've been having is colitis. This all sucks. :( The timing is the worst possible and it may force me to do some drastic things. I'm going to offer myself to Macromedia for some sort of paying position (like making sure their email works properly). If that doesn't work (which I really don't expect it to) then I'm going to see about seperating myself from FA and then offer myself to New Atlanta. I don't want to do it, but... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 Your ad could be here.
