I was hoping to hear back from one contact today, but I think I just have to be patient. I keep forgetting that while I'm running around in hyper drive other people (normal people) have things to do and will get around to responding to me.
Still I'm antsy for the reply, especially if it is a good one, it could lead to some good things for me.
But On another front I have some potential good coming at me. I took a bold step and spend some money on a laptop from an auction site. It's used and is missing the ac adapter and keeboard but otherwise is supposed to be perfectly functional. With an external keyboard and a $15 investment in a power cord it should be fine. The specs on this are the exact same as my dieing desktop which takes up six times as much space. So If I can make this work for me it promises to be a good deal. What's more is that I have a wireless card with the drivers to get it to run on the operating system needed. Provided the hardware is compatable I might be able to access the net from my room rather then relying on public access computing at the Uni.
I know that seems like a lot of ifs, but it wasn't really that expensive, it's not even my monthly food budgets worth or money, and it's a risk I'm willing to try in order to make some of these projects easier for me to take care of.
I've got to get going. I'll post again tomorrow.
Bummer think I'm getting a cold, take care of yourselves,
Roving Jack
