[thechat] Laptop Woes

[Erik Mattheis]

My G4 died a week ago and I discovered the existence of internal hard drive
adaptors when shopping for a replacement. Will save me a lot of time fussing
with ribbons. Heck, I could have used one before ... as there was no space
for a third hard drive and I needed one, the side of my Mac has been open
for the last year.

Ended up getting a refurbished Acer Aspire 5130 laptop to hold me over until
I have enough for the new Mac I want. In the mean time, I'm finally able to
play Civ 4. Yum. Like the gameplay, but the graphics seem too busy and the
music is not that interesting.

Hi Kevin,

Neat!  That's a pretty cool little gizmo
