Hi GoCam. Welcome to POTN and to the chat thread here

Pete, sounds like you had a good time at the zoo. Shame you have these internet woes. Do you have a dialup modem anywhere to help you out?

Nope... No squawky modem here. We bought another ADSL modem from Argos today to check to see if the old one was broke.

Unfortunately, there's no difference. I have a feeling it's going to be some time before I'm fully up to speed again.

Athena did you see they released a G9?

Well, I've been having desktop woes of late. Stopped in to a great computer store in town that has both prebuilt computers or will build to your specs. After they reviewed my tales and the specs of my computer, it was determined that at the least I would have to wipe the slate clean and start over with it, and that if we were to do the build today, it would only be worth about the cost of the 2 250 GB hard drives. Long story short, I bought a new computer, will get it up and running with all my software on it, the go about reformatting my old one and passing it along. Well, that is after they build it for me, which will likely be Tuesday or Wednesday.

And to add to that, I need to either replace my notebook and pass the old one on to Caitlin, or just get her a new one. She starts back to school on the 4th and needs it then. I do have my choices narrowed down to about 4 notebooks, I just have to decide. After this expense, I may go without one for a while and just give mine to Caitlin, and then just pick one up as needed. Fortunately, all this computer stuff can be a business expense.

It seems I may never get the new vehicle I want with everything else I have spent money on lately. I keep using what would be the new vehicle payments for all these items. Sheesh.

LOL Jim but you'll be rockin with the new Pc and all ..I just got a laptop for my trip and I think its crappy ...it seems to not work as well as I thought it would .Maybe its my learning curve .

The biggest problem I find with any laptop is the screen for photo editing or display. Having the best screen I could get was what I set out to find. The newest MacBook Pros seems about the best out there, followed by a a few other Windows base ones. The issue, they are all at around the $2,000 plus mark. The one I have now performs everything I would every want it to, the screen colours just are not that great for photo work.

yep Jim I hear ya on that one I hate the screen on my laptop everything looks faded I almost thought it was me overexposing alot but would'nt touch them till I got home and had them on my pc here ..and I was right they look fine on my pc ..yet washed out on my laptop .
