WD> I have "never" bought a new computer, always built them myself. Well, a WD> laptop, WD> yes!
The same here. I sold a lot of new computers though <G>
WD> The crap seemed to be that so many computer business have closed shop here WD> and it's not all that easy to get replacement parts.
I have to travel to Kingston to get most parts at a decent price. There is a computer shop or two in town, but they are expensive, and they would rather repair them for you instead of just selling parts

I have a box of those as well, but most should probably be disposed of. Maybe I will put them on Kijiji, as they are all old and those old video cards do not work too well in new systems if they even fit in the slots <G>. Lan cards, sound cards etc.
WD> Now there's another machine here with the same motherboard bought on the WD> same day as the one that was malfunctioning the day before yesterday ...

WD> I wonder if this one is going to abandone too...
Maybe the HD. I have two spare computers sitting here. For the BBS I would have to redo one of them in 32 bit instead of 64 bit.
