still sure you want to be the techno social butterfly Hmmmm?

Dear Examinator,

I'd settle for a new upgraded computer
(mine's an antique), and a printer that
actually worked.

I was promised a new one as a Christmas
present - but other priorities came up.
Now it's fingers-crossed - perhaps my
Birthday in July ...

Techno Social butterfly?
Not me!

Many thanks Examinator; just made my 19yr old daughter aware [half the city will be aware by tomorrow morning and playing your links]

You make me laugh Foxy; I relate to so many of your contributions and the printer bizzo lol

If you truly are in the market for a new computer, try something like this:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360233273698

These are ex lease "commercial grade" machines that usually retail for around $1,400 (well, $1000 without the bits and pieces you don't get). See:

http://www1.ap.dell.com/au/en/business/desktops/optiplex-380/pd.aspx?refid=optiplex-380

It is a working computer with a legal copy of Windows, delivered to your door. It doesn't come with external extras like screen, keyboard and speakers. You will be able to re-use your current screen and speakers, but will probably be up for around $40 for a new keyboard & mouse as this thing takes USB only.

If you want a shiny new 21 inch LCD screen, it will set you back another $170 if you buy it from the right place.

examinator,
