It is officially time to CRY...about my computer.

**jenluckenbach** · 01-02-2006, 07:31 PM

I (as a computer idiot) do not KNOW what is wrong. All I know is that I sent it to my brother-in-law who really does know a lot about computers. AND he is the type that doesn't like to be beaten.....he tried so hard, but just could not fix it. And even if he explained it to me, I would not understand, so I believe him.

Sure, I could sent it to an expert, but I can't afford to pay someone to tell me it is unfixable.....know what I mean??

The part that worries me is that this computer is OLD. It is bound to break down. And even saving for a new computer is simply not in the budget.

Well, I will stay here with you all for as long as I can. if this thing dies......well we won't think about that now.

Fear not, your Fairy Godmother is here!

I just asked hubby and the computer sitting in storage collecting dust is yours. We've recently had it completely wiped clean. Windows 98 is the only thing on it, so you'd have to install everything you normally use. AND the on/off button doesn't work. So once you got it on, it'd have to stay on.

Interested in it?

We Hope That You Could Take Kims Computer And Have The On/off Fixed As We Would Miss You On Pet Talk,with All Your Cats.
We Are Praying For Some Good Luck To Come To You.

I take it you're interested?

No problem, it feels good to be able to give whenever posible!

Here's me sitting on the other side of the world with three computers which you could have had your choice of seeing as you do so much for cats. As for your old one it probably died of old age or a power surge could have killed it, hard to tell really without seeing it. If you ever move to Australia there's a computer waiting for a good home, there's always a spare or two here as I'm a part time tech.

YYYYYAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!! For your Fairy Godmother. Thank you so much Kim, for being so kind to give Jen your used computer.

There ya go Jen. Now wipe those tears and put a big happy

on that sweet face of yours.

All good things come to those who deserve it and you truly deserve it Jen.

How great you have a new computer to foster! And maybe catnapper's hubby can look at your old machine and transfer files from your old HD to the newer computer.

For future reference - if you don't have a computer savvy friend who will do it for free, call your local high school. They'll find a kid to help you out who, at his/her age, knows more about pooters than 10 of us put together!

Happy news!
