  • MY Laptop died last night, born 12th July 2009 the Insperon 1540 had a hard life before i got it at 3 yrs old, case was cracked, screen had 1 row of dead pixels the power input was broken and the keyboard was completely gummed up with nail varnish, cost me £15 for new dell keyboard,£9-50 for second hand daughter board with power input, and £8 for 2 gb ram, to get it working so cant complain.

    Just found a re-use Dell latitude 5490 I5-8250u, 16gb, 480gb SSD, but its only a 14 inch, would have preferred a 15.6 inch, but the cheapest of similar spec was more than twice the price

    we are a village of just under 400 homes, about 1/2 mile [.7 K] away over the hill, they are building around 800 new homes, I am blaming them for my poor connections the last few weeks, today has been particularly bad, dropping out every few minutes.

    Feel like sh*t, been ill for the last 4 days, missed daughter's 25 th wedding anniversary, somehow managed to delete saved private e-mails on my provider server going back to 1990, many had attachments I wanted to keep, tried logging in here but just could not cope. Even cancelled holiday [we were ment to be driving the 51/2 hrs to Cornwall today]
    This will not cause a conflict of interest, I have been appointed moderator on another Linux [distribution] site

    , It's only a small site so as KGIII would say it's a janitorial job, make sure new members stick to the site rules, approve now member post sweep out and dispose of any crud. And as the only one in my time zone it speeds up new post approvals, [It use to take up to 48 hrs to get a post approved as the development team did not visit the forums very often]
