I knew it was coming, I just hoped it wouldn`t be so soon. My laptop has been having enough issues with the memory and hard drive problems and various other problems with USB ports, network card, and a lot of the other onboard motherboard related hardware. Now the onboard video is going too. I`ve been plagued with various screen and graphics errors the past several days and It`s getting progressively worse, I can hardly see what I`m typing through the damn lines on the screen..

It seems that it is time to say goodbye to my laptop, it has served me well but there`s just no getting around the fact that to make it run properly I`d essentially have to replace everything, or get a new one. Martin and I may have a solution in the works, with an older desktop he has, we will just need to be sure we can get it working properly and get the proper software on it. I may be out of touch for a few days as we get the comp working, work out the kinks, and get my writing materials transferred.As soon as I do I will get back to work and respond to any messages and such.

*hugs to you all*
