Life is hell. I hope that they can fix it soon. I don't know how much longer I can live without it.

It's a place in Hattiesburg that has a great reputation. Sorry. I can't type on this tiny phone. I hope they call tomorrow and tell me it's fixed and I hope it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

I planned on calling tomorrow. I called them last Wednesday. I don't want to irritate them to the point where they consider me a nag. They might decide to make me wait even longer.

Wow, Al. I'd love it if you did that for me. I hope to have mine back soon, but I know now how miserable it is to be without a backup.

It was delivered today, Mr. Sabetta. I have it plugged in and turned on but I have to look up the pass word. I thought that it was Simply Discus but it doesn't like that one.

Oh, BTW. I got my computer back yesterday just before 5. I would love to keep yours as a back up in case something like this happens again.

lol.. your password is in the text .. caps and lower cases exactly as written:)

The laptop is yours Liz. Alls I ask is if you ever decide to upgrade and no longer need it to send it back so I can rehome it. It has much life left

Have fun.
Al

Deal...Or if you find someone else who needs it more than I do now, let me know and I'll send it back. You have a good heart, Mr. Sabetta.

That Thinkpad will probably outlive most new laptops, they don't make stuff like they used to!!! (God I sound like my grandmother, bless her soul). I echo the sentiment that Al is a real gent and should therefore be called Sir Al (or at least Signor Sabetta)!

I have to admit, Mr Sabetta did sound sound strange when it came out of my keyboard.
