i meant the thickness of the plexy like 1/8", 1/4", 1/2", 1". i have actually decied to go with a 2'x6' 1/4" sheet and a 24" 1" square rod.
I just built a small basic tower for a girl that already had a monitor mouse and keyboard and just wanted to upgrade. First she called me to say hey, when I plug the phone line into the computer I can't use my phone, even when I'm not olnline. Then she told me that I plugged the phone line in but its not connecting at all. I sat there scratching my head, then remembered... she didn't have a modem installed! She was plugging the normal phone cord into the ethernet jack and wanting it to work.
It's an ibm aptiva. But get this... It's running windows XP Pro... LOL! I gotta go in tomorrow and deal with it's reinstall now. Some nasty badware took care of its ability to log on to any given user.
My mum is still trying to grasp copy/paste and when it comes to saving to disk, if she used a differenc computer, she'd probably explode. she does the single finger typing thing as well, sometimes I think it'd be quicker to type with my nose. My dad has worked with the very first computers, like the ones used to calculate how much gas flows through a pipeline, and have a 4 line lcd display, and not too long ago he was unsure what a "link" was or where to click. I have to stop myself spontaneously combusting at their stupidity sometimes plus my friend who knows a bit about computers though cache was pronounced ka-chee
Thats exactly what my grandfather did! And there was a time at school when a thick girl asked me to help her because the computer wasn't working - it wasn't turned on... More like ka-chay
it's "cash." anyway... that system with all the dirt inside is nothing. i work in IT at a vocational school. the masonry instructor complained that his system didn't boot at all. when we get this problem where i work, it saves time to open the case right away. i wish i had a picture of what i saw inside. this computer sat in his office, running, for three straight years. on the floor. years worth of concrete dust had caked itself onto the motherboard. canned air did little good. took me an hour with a 200psi air compressor to get it to kind-of clean. that board is completely fried. we keep it around for laughs.
instant rice, you ruin the fun. sheesh, nobody around here knows how to have a laugh. at least kameleon laughed at it....because he actually highlight my entire first post.
ya, I almost forgot I geuss I have to tell a story. I opened up my dads old computer and well it was dusty.And if some one elts opens it soon they will see that I put "jtggg was here" with my finger in the dust.
I pronounce it Cash-Eh (eh like canadians say...) And Lynn UX...I believe those are the rigth pronounciations but...ya never know.
