I would like to keep them for that reason, but shelf space is a bit more important at the moment. i might just put them in a box and put them in our storage shed. and show that young one in years to come how easy they have it now... hahahaha LOL:D;) | stevensaaron (6348) | ||

| 850338 | 2010-01-24 09:21:00 | Looking back at some of the Old magazines esp at pricing you go Holy :eek: And people complain today at some of the pricing. In the January 2010 Austalian PC user mag their 20 Anniversary issue, some interesting facts from times long gone. Take This article (www.imagef1.net.nz) - its scanned as I wasn't going to write it all out - people think they are hard done by now awhhhhhhh:crying. I still have a two speed external CD writer in the workshop that works - cost me around $1500 in 1998 (and thats no typo). |
