my radio finally died

the radio I had for 2 years (the internet one), is finally dead, me thinks.

I am going to get someone to have a look at it at some stage this week, but for now I have to look in to getting a new one (I can listen to atlantis via Itunes, that's not a problem)

but would prefer having the radio.. much better speakers.

Sorry your radio quit. We have a tendency to get used to having things and when they go out it's like a major big deal. I hope that you get it fixed soon.

on the plus side, I am glad it's not my computer.

I remember that happening before, and it was pure hell.

yep. pure hell

I remember PMing you when I first joined PC about my having lived in the same city as you many years ago, and I just wanted to say that a place called FixIt in Burley still sells cheap refurbished stuff from students, and mends them - have a look online. It's open for everyone and they do things like furniture too.

actually good to know

thanks. i'll have a look at that

Freecycle has some good stuff floating about, which may be of some use to you

Sorry to hear that. Lately I have been having problems with my laptop. It goes down and then somehow I'm able to make it work. And then it happens again. I had already taken my laptop in for repair twice. And still the same problem.
