    Was off riding for a month for that matter.
    Middle ear infection.
    Balance issues and M/bikes just don't mix.
    That was weird it was like having drunk a whole 40oz in an hour.

    I hear that brother, let hear an amen!

    At least you will still have your sense of humour.

    eg system package http://www.qmb.co.nz/pk.aspx?102
    this is one of the suppliers i deal with parts i get parts cheaper than there website says, that is a
    AMD 3000+, 512 ddr400 for that price as 17' crt but thats easy changed. I will get a few computer price specs worked up soonish,
    But i am sure there is someone better suited around auckland area that will do this, i mean i build machines for friends, and just charge them a setup fee which is building,install os etc etc, normal of about $50, and make them buy me something while ordering stuff, eg more ram for me or some simlar i am not in to make a profit or anything.

    If there arn't anyone up there in orcland who will help ya out for a good price i am happy to do it Big Dog, if ya want.

    Well, of course, as you'd expect I can get 'staff-price' level PC parts from about three different sources, with the usual caveat that there may be a week or two's delay on some things, yada yada. And I can source (ahem) installations (AHEM) of most software packages. At very little cost. (ahem.) And I can plug together and set up a box and all that.

    But I'm not really up with the play on what's good and what's not. And I have negative levels of spare time, inasmuch as my total outstanding chores and obligations have grown continuously over the last couple of years with no sign of letup.

    So I'm probably not the best guy for the job. But I might be able to contribute in some small way, so keep me in t'loop...

    The best thing is if you have a chinaman as a friend.
    I'm a chinaman but I cant speak chinatalk, so i'm a bit useless.
    But if you have one that can talk the talk, he can find a good bargain for premium performance!
    Stay away from ANY brand if you wanna save.
    Especially the ones offered at Warehouse.

    The dell machines at the warehouse are okay for the average joe blogs who wants a machine to email and play mine sweeper. But not gaming

    Any brand machine you pay alot for the brand name, and there warranty, but all computer parts have a 1 year warranty on them.
