hello sexy
I'm off to the glorious city of Manchester to buy new computer bits today. There will be much cursing and swearing as I attempt to make it all work later.

Anything interesting?
I was contemplating a spin to our Computer mall as well but have no idea what I want. I'll probably settle for a bagfull of dodgy DVD's

motherboard and some DDR2 memory
although everything's so dirt cheap now I'll probably end up with a new CPU and hard disk as well

I knackered the motherboard in my main PC by accidentally blasting it with static electricity while the case was open
I'm posting this from a Pentium3 433 overclocked to 600MHz

it runs like a stunned slug full of qualudes and mogadon

Was Mike Oldfield's second album

it was a last-ditch effort to rescue an old PC so I didn't bother
the memory sockets have worked loose so it was freezing all the time when the memory sticks took a knock or heated up

took me back to the days of ZX81 RAMPack wobble it did
