;) I really dont need this 'but i'm the guy who wins stuff with little effort so thanks I'll throw it on a shelf someware :rofl:

Well my IBM hard drive has now broken for the 3rd time. Yes it's a deathstar, and i'm sick of waiting for it to be replaced on warranty.

Also, while i was at a LAN, my PSU blew up and fried the ATX power connector to my mainboard. They had 4 days left on their warranty (phew) but it took 4-6 weeks to fix so i had to get dad to lend me some money to buy a replacement (not being able to do without my computer for that long).

So now I owe my dad a couple of hundred dollars and I still need a new video card (to play Doom 3 whn it comes out) as I still only have a GeForce 2 MX :(.

So I really need to win something to help keep my computer up to speed ;).

Cheers,

Since I can't remember when I won anything. And will be 63yrs old in a couple of months. And I am totally disabled and live on SS. That is not all that much. But I certainly thankful for it. I think this qualifies me to win a really good video card. We have Radeon 8500 retail versions now and can't afford anything better. I would really like one of these new Hercules or Gigabyte Radeon 9500 Pro video card. Certainly would like the 9700 Pro more, but I am not greedy. I would be thankful for either. Thanks All BJ

OMG dood I won!!!! :nod: :nod: :nod: Not sure really what to say but thx for putting up with me *LOL*!!!! What prizes are left..?? Let me know!

I could use som new hardware I think ;)
<-- Me wants a prize too..

i need a new monitor
 

i havea tiny pathetic "15" inch MGC monitor. i say 15 in quotes because its only 11" viewable. im not lying. you can fit a 8*11 pice of paper over it perfectly. ive lived with this crap since 2000. god how i would love a 19" monitor. ive been trying to save up to buy one, but its seems like everything is higher priority than a monitor. that would be the thing i would love, and need to most, a 19" beauty.

i also am in need for a digital camera. those are the 2 things that i would really like, but a monitor for sure.

thanks for hearing me out.

sorry, the last post was by me but i didnt know i was logged

:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

This contest still goin? If so I'd love to get in on it!

Heres a lil something to read since Im not quite good enough to come up with something to read on my own................

In case your frustration level rises today, this is for everyone who occasionally has a really bad day when you just need to take it out on someone:

I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a telephone call that I had to make. I found the number and dialed it. A man answered nicely saying, "Hello?"

I politely said, "This is Patrick Hannifin and may I please speak to Robin Carter?" Suddenly the phone was slammed down on me! I couldn't believe that anyone could be that rude. I tracked down Robin's correct number and called her. She had transposed the last two digits.

After I hung up with Robin, I spotted the wrong number still lying on my desk. I decided to call it again. When the same person once more answered, I yelled, "You're a jack***!" and hung up. Next to his phone number I wrote the word "jack***" and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks when I was paying bills or had a really bad
day, I'd call him up. He would answer and I'd yell, "You're a jack***!" It always cheered me up.

Later in the year the phone company introduced caller ID. This was a real disappointment for me. I would have to stop calling the jack***. Then one day I had an idea. I dialed his number and heard his voice. "Hello?"

I made up a name. "Hi. This is the sales office of the telephone company and I'm just calling to see if you're familiar with our new caller ID program." He answered, “No!" and slammed down the receiver. I quickly called him back and said, “That’s because you're a jack***!"

The reason I'm taking the time to tell you this story is to show you how if there's ever anything bothering you, you can do something about it. Just dial 555-1212.

(Keep reading, it gets better.)

One day an old lady at the mall was really taking her time pulling out of her parking space. I didn't think she was ever going to leave. Finally, her car began to move ever so slowly and she began backing out. I backed up a little more to give her plenty of room. Great, I thought, she's finally leaving. All of a sudden this black Camero came flying up the parking aisle in the wrong direction and pulled into her space. I started honking my horn and yelling, "You can't do that, buddy! I was here first!"

The guy got out of his Camero completely ignoring me. He walked toward the mall as if he didn't even hear me. I thought to myself, this guy is a jack***. There sure are a lot of jack***es in this world. I noticed he had a "For Sale" sign in the back window of his
car. I wrote down the number. Then I hunted for another place to park.

The next day I was at home sitting at my desk. I had just gotten off the phone after calling 555-1212 and yelling, "You're a jack***!"

(It's really easy to call him now since I have his number on speed dial.)

Then I noticed the phone number of the guy with the black Camaro and decided to call him too. After a couple of rings someone answered the phone. I asked, "Are you the man with the black Camaro for sale?"

"Yes."

"Can you tell me where I can see it?"

"Yes, I live at 1802 West 34th Street. It's a yellow house and the car is parked right out front."

I asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Don Hansen."

"When's a good time to catch you, Don?"

"I'm home in the evenings."

"Listen, Don, can I tell you something?"

"Sure."

"Don, you're a jack***!" And I slammed the phone down.

After I hung up I added Don's number to my speed dialer. Now I had two jack***es to call whenever I had a bad day. However this wasn't as much fun as it used to be. So I thought about it and came up with a solution.

First, I had my phone dial jack*** #1. The man answered nicely and I yelled, "You're a jack***!" But I didn't hang up.

The jack*** said, "Are you still there?"

I said, "Yeah."

He said, "Stop calling me."

I said, "No!"

He said, "What's your name, pal?"

I said, "Don Hansen."

He said, "Where do you live?"

"1802 West 34th Street. It's a yellow house and my black Camaro is parked out front."

"I'm coming over right now, Don. You'd better start saying your prayers."

"Yeah, like I'm really scared, Jack***!" And I hung up.

Then I called Jack*** #2. He answered, "Hello."

I said, "Hello, jack***!"

He said, "If I ever find out who you are..."

"You'll what?"

"I'll kick your butt."

"Well, here's your chance. I'm coming over right now, jack***!"

And I hung up. Then I picked up the phone and called the police. I told them I was at 1802 West 34th Street and that I was going to kill my gay lover as soon as he got home. Another quick call to Channel 13 news about the gang war going down on West 34th Street. After that I climbed into my car and headed over to 34th Street to watch the whole
thing. Glorious!

I watched two jack***es kicking the crap out of each other in front of 6 squad cars and a police helicopter I also taped it off the evening news!

What prizes are left..?

okay so someone tell me- did I actually win or not?

I give thanx to the lord who gives me the pentium i need and the Gforce i want. I pray to the lord to let me win anything that's left coz it is all I want. I ask this thru the Random Generator, AMEN.

giveaway
 

Well I really need this stuff, I am still using cassette tape back ups and my latest gaming system is Telstar. I am so far behing the times I am just now getting into Disco (not really the disco part, just thought I would throw that in for drama). I can no longer find those 5 1/4 in floppys to save files on. I am pretty pathetic.
I hope this breaks your hearts enough so that I win.

:cheers:

Cheers Amigo,

Dan

P.S., This is a great site you have here, thanks to all who help out all us nimrods who screw up our systems because we think we know it all.

Well, i think i deserve
 

I think i deserve to get the keychain memory, because if i dont, i will be kicked out of school.
seriously.
heres what happened:
my computer science teacher loaned these to everyone in the class. I left mine on his desk one day so he could take a look at some files on it, and apparently someone stole it. So, if i dont have one of these by like the beginning of summer, i am expelled for next year.
I would buy one, but theyre really expensive (at least for a teen programmer, :))

A joke:
A man walks into a bar, and the bartender looks over ane sees that he has this large mass growing from the top of his head. Its large, fleshy, and green, and looks almost like a frog.
The man sits down, and the bartender points to the mass, and says to the guy "Hey, you know about that?"
And the frog says "Yeah, i got a big thing growin off my a$$.

:)
