Grrrrr
The tech at Gateway was wrong. I didn't need a new video card. I need a monitor. We have a couple hanging out in the basement, but they're really old with the wrong connection. I checked the newspaper and Craigslist.com. Nothing available. I'll call our favorite computer repair guy in a little while to see if he might have one. I don't want or need a brand new monitor with a computer that I've had for 8 years.

My computer really has been good to me for those years. The tech mentioned that in 8 years I have called them 16 times - and about 6 of the calls were about 6 months after the computer arrived and the monitor kept going blinking and flashing. After the 6th call, they ordered a new monitor for me. They never did get the old one picked up and I ended up tossing it in the trash.

Anyway....

I'm on hubby's computer right now. I guess we'll have to share until I can get a monitor. That means no late nights, 'cause his computer is in the bedroom. (Mine sits in the kitchen, remember?)
