Hi Nonsmoker and all you other friends!

I would chuck my modem out the window, but alas, it won't break. Too short distace to drop onto a lawn or flowerbed.
Zman the poor dog laugh
The machines have been conspiring against me for the past two days,
and would you believe as I am typing this message, my keyboard has stopped working.uh oh
The strange thing is it just wont work on the web. Sites like CS and youtube. this is typed and pasted from Textpad ???? sigh
Non, that's annoying, my computer is alright now but one of my back up generators has decided I only need 70 volts instead of 220, I'll be getting the hammer out soon laugh rolling on the floor laughing laugh
Catfoot ow are you today.
Im just back from a drive, I had to go out as my laptop is scanning for a virus. I find myself watching the scan count if I am near it.
This PC is ok apart from the keyboard issue.
But just to let you know I have a bucket of suggestions for your modem.
The only problem is they would involve you forking out for a new one.
Zman,
be careful with the hammer
Non. I've given it fair warning, if it doesn't get it's act together & start producing the required voltage it will be punished........ severally professor laugh rolling on the floor laughing laugh
Dont use the electric chair on it roll eyes
4two,
Its always the Appliance you suspect the least that gets you in the end.
hair dryers, GHD, Toasters, and like MIKE Said the kettles are the ring leaders.
4two
Nearly there I think, running a boot scan now. sigh

and wouldn't make my head and brain hurt sigh laugh
Hi Non, handshake

"The non-profit One Laptop Per Child has engineered laptops for the world's computerless masses. Given that billions of people don't have electricity, OLPC has designed laptops that can operate off-the-grid, perfect for Rwandan cities, aboriginal Canadian settlements -- and Amish colonies."

That would alleviates Z problem with his electrical supply. thumbs up
A little cooler in Paris, how is the weather in your part of the world. hug
Those laptops are real then !!
I thought it a joke.
Aren't the Amish against all tech including plastic ? uh oh
King-Pin and Witness are the only Reference I ever Had about that Culture. roll eyes

I ever had that kind TV ......if out of anger hmmm just ever happened once time crush a glass with my hands & blood of my hands, well my fault hehheee (have to hold the anger then crushed the glass) doh
Zman,
Crankers Cramp laugh rolling on the floor laughing
"The Amish live in a constellation of agrarian spots in the northern United States and they're famous for their opposition to some modern technologies, specifically high-voltage electricity."

Many don't approve of modern technology like cell phones, cars, radios, TV and Internet. This is one kitchen, it has a refrigerator.
