Haha, sounds like my dads shed, it's large, and has everything, but it's nearly impossible to find just what you need to find. But good job, what conversions did you need, I'm assuming that you needed something like DVI to HDMI convertor.

Probably. My laptop has a HDMi out but the cable needed an adapter since it was something like a DVI.

Ah, Reliant, the doorway to your Dad's shed must contain a wormhole ending in my garage. Two-and-a-half car garage plus a workbench/sink area, and I still can hardly negotiate a path from the door to the lawnmower.

I've personally taken to simply leaving the mower on top of the pile of junk closest to the door.

I got internet working, but only using Firefox, I'm trying a reinstall of Chrome.

Well, after a whole week camping out at my parent's p[lace I managed to clean up compress the mess in such a way I actually created a bit more space for my parents to put more rubbish in.

My father is going for job interview number two today. I hope to god he gets this job, purely so he can avert the clinical depression that's creeping back again. Child protection is something only a certain kind of person can do, and Father isn't one of them.

Best of luck, Reliant.

Neat. Have fun. :)

Well, I'm back online (for now at least).

Borrowed a PC to use until I can get a new one. Was gonna get a new laptop but those damned unpredicable crisis cropped up and POOF.....there went the few dollars I'd been saving.

I'll echo Deep on that.

I saw a nice, brand new laptop (nice as in: better than my computer) on Best Buy for $300. It's what I'm recommending for Uzume.

Well, just recently I did a complete redo of someone computer, which turned out just fine, and then yesterday I did a slight upgrade on someone else's computer. I am apparently the god of computers now. So yeah, that's been my life recently, basically repairing computers, and then this Friday I will be working on another, which isn't software this time, it's all hardware. Which is harder a lot harder.

So that'll be fun.
