I feel your pain, Wellard... the one time I've taken a PC into the shop in the past few years, it was because the machine wouldn't boot. Turned out the motherboard went bad...

Had it replaced, but had to buy another one in the meantime.
Me, I'm kind of bummed... I had a customer who I was sure was going to buy a significant chunk of software today (last day of month), but they couldn't get the PO done, and no one was ready to step up and sign the paperwork until the PO was done. *sigh* Ah well... it will come in next month.
Spent the evening after dinner fixing up the kids' bikes for our neighborhood fourth of July parade tomorrow morning. Mailboxes were decorated earlier... I'll throw some pics out if I remember. Uncle Sam is saluting in ours... or waving, depending on how you look at it.
Now for some thinking and gaming...
