Soxy Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 My old laptop is falling apart! Today the n key fell off, and the guy said to fix it we would need to replace the whole keyboard due to the age of the computer. Dammit.

santo=dorf Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 (edited) My old laptop is falling apart! Today the n key fell off, and the guy said to fix it we would need to replace the whole keyboard due to the age of the computer. Dammit. I can live without an "n" Happened to my first laptop. Most of the left side was paralyzed so I would go to the forum and highlight an "a" and just copy and paste it when I needed it. I did that for a couple of weeks until I decided just to buy a loose keyboard for $10. Edited August 17, 2007 by santo=dorf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can live without an "n" I had to use a busted keyboard like that for a little while once. I forget what key was dead, but I just kept it in clipboard memorey and pasted it in every time I needed it. It would have driven me nust if I had to do it for more than a couple days.

Heads22 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 The three remaining summer workers for the school district that do mowing and moving (i. e. me and two buddies) had just gotten done moving stuff into a band room. We were tellin the janitors good bye and they were thanking us for help over the summer (gotta keep em happy). One janitor, since it was our last week, whipped out her wallet and gave us 20 bucks for a McDonald's breakfast. So, here I am, in an 88 chevy van at the McDonald's drive thru, asking for a SEC biscuit, SEC bagel, SEC mcgriddle and 6 apple pies. Today was a good day.

Much less Vista. And I don't mind macs, I think they're pretty intuitive. And I'll mostly just need the damn thing for writing (which makes the crappy keyboard even worse). Well, that and playing iTunes, of course. Can they migrate my songs (that are on a pc) to a mac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can live without an "n" I use a remote keyboard and mouse most of the time I use my laptop. My new machine has bluetooth built in, so I bought a blue tooth set up. But you should be able to pick up a cheap keyboard and just plug it in. I also place my notebook on a stand which elevates the display to be more like a desktop. At the minimum, it is a cheap and quick fix to this problem. BTW, after playing with my son's new Mac laptop, I really did not like the keyboard, but the rest of the machine seemed nice. I still would stay with a PC, at my advanced age, why relearn commands and such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 So an odd thing happened to some Bekins drivers... We booked the Hogan move from Miami to California. The drivers have been there packing and loading for a couple days and everything is fine. Then jag bag Nick shows up and soon after out of the blue the cops show because he makes an accusation of “stolen jewelry”. The Bekins driver has the presence of mind to say “Hey, I’m here and all my men are here and our equipment. We agree to a search without a warrant.” Lined em all up, did the search and they are clean….turns out the butler did it!! Hulk ends up popping open a few brewskys and shared them with the “Bekins Team”. Wonder if that will make an episode of "Hogan knows best".

The Critic Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 I saw a commercial for that upcoming "Cavemen" series this morning - did they not even hire the same guys from the Geico commercials? It didn't look like them. That is the only thing that could make this idea any worse - it's bad enough to base a series on a commercial, but then to hire someone else to play the guys from the commercial?? Dumb.
