A month of no computer

Mon Nov 16, 2009, 10:46 PM
Comp's power supply broke...


So I just grabbed one off an older system...


And it worked except that the HDD used a newer connection... So I got on a different computer and ordered one. And what I thought was 1 week for delivery turned out to be a "Head Start" to disappointment. One simple part and the company waited forever to order it. Since I was busy with work, I kept putting the issue off. On hindsight I'd have just let "Best Buy" scalp me for a new power supply, not even Radio Shack had the adapter parts and the salespeople at both places unimpressed me with any knowledge. Ended up being a month.


Seeing where the cords went, I now know if I'd just cut the connector from the first power supply and spliced by color it would have worked also... I also know why it took so long now, the instructions on the part package were all in Chinese. Some "3rd party" waiting for the boat of "Slave made goods flom amiable venelable Cathay" to arrive...


But it put things in perspective. I'd been wasting a lot of time pointlessly browsing and putting off a lot of good projects doing that. So I practiced art and organized what I wanted to do.

Muzik:-)

I'm making a music album. Working on 3 core projects, with matching music videos. Then I'll advertise and try to get donations so I can buy a KORG keyboard to do the rest;-)
