Long story short....

My hard drive crashed, I called Dell who promptly sold me a new one, along with a better memory module. Got everything, including a borrowed XP disc which I'm told I'll need to reload onto computer.

I am extremely wary of attempting to do all this myself, even though people claim it's pretty easy. Verizon would charge me $250.00 to have somebody come. Surely there must be someone out there...am thinking of taking it to Staples unless I can find an 'expert' out there. Been putting feelers out just gotta find someone in my proximity would gladly pay for the service, just not $250!!!

Or...is it really ok to open back pull out old & reinistall new? (Just thining of opening the back makes me nervous...)

Thoughts welcome.

So are insults...as long as they're grounded in reality. grin

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
