i'm impressed that you don't have any dust bunnies in there!
Sometimes when you cry... no one sees your tears.
Sometimes when you are worried... no one sees your pain.
Sometimes when you are happy... no one sees your smile.
But fart just one damn time ...

Thanks Garmy, today I have learnt something else.
I had to Google dust bunnies. This is a good article:
http://www.nowpublic.com/life/dust-bunn ... oints-view

I just call it electronic dust and I hate it the most for its clingyess & hidiness!! :twisted:

Wouldn't it be perfect if all electronic gadgetry came with a miniature, super dust-sucker
to get it before it attaches to the powerboards, cords & every little nook and cranny that you can't reach...or see?
Omg I'm looking for it now...
Must join the 12 hops programme :wink:

hmm, would yours be a jetbook?

I LOVE my lappy, it is off the hook

best of all i paid $100 for it and it is only 1 year old, the guy who sold it is a retired airline pilot, i guess money to him doesn't really mean anything, hell the last laptop he went to sell he ended up giving away for free because never came back to get his money.


As far as the dust bunnies go, i dont have any yet I've only had my system in the case for about 3 weeks, but my room is dusty.

I have my tower, monitor, router, satlite modem, and phone on 2 650VA Sycom Batttery backups. I might in time add a third to do my tv, and a few other small electronics.

I have the largest gathering of electronics in one place, seriously.

My laptop is an HP Pavillion, and it's performed very well for the last 4 or 5 years. Of late it just became too slow though, hence the upgrade to an iMac.

Are you saying my tie job looks like a mess? Well can you imagine what it looked like before? Hahaha! At least now I can reach my hand in and be able to get it out without getting it tangled in wire and rip the TV off the wall mount....

It's 4 -5 years old and a iMac! An iMac, what's wrong with you, dont let them make you part of the collective, they want to turn you into BORG! But really anything that old and being a lappy is doomed to be slow, the hard disks generally are the culrpit, hell my lappy can be slow at times without reason, and others and runs damn sweet.

I know. I'm kinda having a little fun with it, going to look into buying 311 - Transistor on Vynl, yes you can find new Vynl's, they're out there. It's not that I think they sound better, but I just like the way they sound, and it's not the pops and crackle's. Look at it this way, after man is gone, or if we have some sort of nuclear fallout to where computers are wiped out are become useless, I think I can find ways to listen to music, we'll have turntables again before iPod's. Yeah turntable in the face, mr. iMacAttack!
