Good comes from bad (computers)
My computer broke about a month and a half ago, and I first tried to fix it myself. I ordered a bunch of stuff to see if replacing them would fix it (if it didn't, just return them). After about 2 weeks of doing that I finally succumbed to sending it to a place to fix it, but they were all so expensive, 80 bucks an hour with no detail on how long it'd take. So I learned that one of my friends actually did this on this side, so I asked if he'd do it, of course I would pay him, it's a business, he's gotta make money. But anyways, he found out it was the motherboard, so he ordered it and fixed it up.
Then today, I went to go pick it up and as he's finishing it off, he gets a phone call from one of his buddies he worked with and he's sellin 2 of his computer systems. They're exactly the same, it's an AMD Athlon I believe with 1 gig of memory, 60GBHD, 24x burner, dvd, Radeon 9800 pro 2.2 AGP, and a 19" flat screen. It also comes with a 17" flatscreen as a bonus. They were top of the line last year pretty much and he's selling them for $300 a piece. So he told me and of course I wanted in. So now me and him both have $2500 computer systems for $300. Shaweet.
Btw, im back. :woowoo:
