Dear Brother Dwaine, My family has fallen on hard times, and we are having to be much more resourceful in procuring the necessities in life. For example, I recently discontinued all the premium channels on my sattelite TV, and I dropped the bandwidth on my high speed modem from 6.0 mps to 1.5. I also stopped putting 93 octane gas in my Mercedes Coupe, and stopped ordering tea with my steak and lobster, opting for water instead. Another way we are saving money in these hard times is by using old magazines and books for toilet paper. The book you advertise seems to be a high quality bond, and contains many pages. I would be most grateful if you would hook a brother up and send it to me for the stated use. I probably can scrape together the money for shipping, but I was hoping you would have mercy on my plight and send it at your expense. If you have any old Spiderman magazines laying around, throw those in as well. They are great for the final wipe. Thanks, Brother Barry
If you send that book to barry we will never hear from him again, cause he will have his PC so fucked up it will be useless. Make sure you wear your grounding strap........so is DOS still on the A+ exam or am I just that old????
Why open a monitor? The last one I opened was an Imac(one of the originals) what a turd. I remember having to de-charge one of the capacitors cause it would shock the shit out of you if you didnt. Other than that, monitors are cheap and not worth opening.... :wink:
Dear Dwaine, I need this book of yours to finish my look. I have the keys to my '89 Honda Civic on a BMW key fob. I have bluetooth receiver stuck in my ear all the time (and don't even have a cell phone.) I have a non-working Texas Instruments memo-master that I pretend is a Blackberry. I don't know squat about computers but if I had that book on my desk, I could look like a complete tool (like Brett Ruth) and that is my goal. Please help me. MAJ Poser
Yep, with that book havoc you cant start an exciting career at CompUSA....Or you can join the geek squad at Best Buy. Where the biggest benefit is the employee discount.... You can make 10.00 an hour, and drive the company vehicle....sweet. I hate to admit that I was that geek at CompUSA that did all the onsite crap. Weeeee. Drove the tricked out E350 van with nothing in it. I mean who the hell need 30Cubic Feet of cargo space to repair a modem???? Yea, not to mention the fact that I had to cover the entire southern part of GA and most of Carolina. Since we were the only 'road whore' store in the area. I have gone to Charleston, Savannah, and even Dublin(Georgia) from Augusta. Well I did stop a lot and waste a lot of time looking at goofy shit, and cars, and chicks. Which it really turns them on knowing they you are pulling in about 25k a year(with bonuses).... :lol:
I made a batch of 'brownies' this morning. I could shipped em out for the book....dang....of course the mail courier would have been pissed as hot as its been lately....
If you repair arcade games, which you will have to do (or pay someone else to do) if you're in the hobby, working on monitors is one of the things you have to learn. I replaced a flyback transformer ($25 part), and did a cap kit ($5 worth of capacitors) as my first major repair on the Ms. Pacman, and ended up saving over $400 by doing the work myself. BTW, what you 'discharged' wasn't a capacitor, it was the monitor tube itself that holds the charge (I suppose you could say that the tube acts as a capacitor in that regard). The transformer connected to the anode cap (rubber suction cup) that you slid the screwdriver under is the flyback, and it delivers 15,000-30,000 volts to the tube. Out of curiosity, did you put your left hand in your pants pocket when you discharged it?
nope, no hands in the pockets. That was back in my compusa days when I had to deal with macs, Ive heard of people getting shocked by them, but never got to see it. Since then, I havent even got close to opening a monitor, except when I replaced some boards in a 54" LCD TV. But that thing was just heavy.
