Parmesian, I think you're going to have to relinquish your "Chief Lurker" title at long last to harry_i_c. Reminds me of you not so long ago.

Dave, without my third cruncher, you should catch back up and pass me for the year to date. It's been a nice quiet little "competition" but I don't stand a chance now. You'll catch up quick. One of the first things I did after leaving IBM was an upgrade at home (and, no, it was not an IBM PC) ![]() We certainly have been lock step, though!

Dr. Mike, good luck choosing your new machine when the bonus money arrives! I'm no PC geek like some folks here

It's a good thing the wife doesn't know much about computers. I'd have never been able to get my daughter a quad! ![]() ![]() |

I'll never forget the sight of a '69 Charger Daytona getting smaller and smaller in my rear view mirror as we raced over highway 17 from Santa Cruz to Los Gatos.... in the days before traffic made such a thing impossible. Ahhh... good times those were. ![]() - D I know that route well also. The best part is from Los Gatos to Scott’s Valley. ![]() ![]() I remember that bumper sticker. I've been in Silicon Valley since it was called Silicon Gulch.... back when agriculture was the largest industry. - D |

I then found that the monthly unemployment check was reduced because I was drawing my IBM pension. While the monthly check was reduced, the number of weeks I could draw it was extended. As it was explained to me, I was given the same total amount over the extended period I would have gotten had I received full unemployment checks for however many weeks it would have been normally. I think I ended up drawing reduced unemployment checks for close to a year and a half (when I was laid off, I think normal unemployment was 27 weeks and this was then extended by another 13 weeks by Congress). |

I grew up and went to college in San Diego but spent most of my career in the Bay Area with Banks. I lived most of that time in Corte Madera in Marin County. Moved East as a consultant to our State of Confusion (oops California). I finally retired to live in paradise in the foothills. Good to have you at MOT! ![]() ![]() |

Highway 17......
----------------------------------------![]() I dislike that highway so much. I get motion sickness. @Dataman/Jonathan: Does anyone mind if I sell that 9800GTX+ to my friend? I'm going to use the money and see if I can get another 260 GTX. It kind of has sentimental value though... too bad it's not the same card that traveled back and forth. ![]() [Edit 2 times, last edit by Former Member at May 1, 2009 3:48:58 AM] |

It’s yours now. You have my blessing to use it, sell it or run over it with a steam roller. Are you sure you want the card from h3ll to infect another person? It does have some “history” though. As far as I can tell, I am the only one to get it to return a result ... though they were few and far between. Go for it. ![]() ![]() |
