[TriLUG] Sys.broke and Gotta...

[Jturena at aol.com]

Thanks for all of your help, again.
Today I got word from the man who has had my computer [for three weeks] that 
he is replacing the harddrive, as it was defective. ( I had thought I was 
going to have to pick it up from him today, unfixed)
Interesting that it was the harddrive, huh? We'll see.
My fear is that I did something to damage it, but all I had been doing was 
leaving it on, with myself logged in, and with Gnome open, and in the 
particular case of the day just before the crash, I had also left Netscape 
open (but I do not have an Internet connection through that machine, or 
anything connected to it besides a monitor and keyboard).
One of you asked if I had a UPS or surge protector for my computer-- I do. 
(This area, as all areas I suppose, has electrical 'glitches' which sometimes 
occur on a regular basis during the year.)
 I have a lot of questions.Do you all think you will ever have a meeting in 
Raleigh?Are there going to be computers in Heaven? I have only had Linux 
installed on a machine for one year. I tried MySQL on it, and really like it.
Sorry about the fact that I have to communicate through Windows and AOL, 
which I think is affecting how my messages come through to the ListServer (if 
it is a listserver), but I have not set up an Internet Link with Linux yet, 
plus all I have is a dial-up modem connection, which affects how quickly I 
can respond and to what extent, to some extent.
Do you have somebody printing T-shirts or anything? It is about time for 
selling them, no?
Thanks,
Jim
