darn

I went to best buy today, needed a new DVD driver. Damn is for good damn and bad damn.
Good Damn: BestBuy.com said 30, they said 50. They also said they would match the price of their website. IT WAS A TYPO! Got it 20 bucks cheaper!
Bad Damn: Its SATA, my computer is only capable of IDE:cry Hasta return it.

But oh well, good day

 

Re: damn.

You should have used this as an excuse to build a new computer!

 

Re: damn.

hmm.. you may be on to something

 

Re: damn.

"Mom, the IDE controller doesnt match the SATA port on the dvd drive. Also the ip address of the gateway wont let me buy a different drive because RIPv1 doesnt allow VLSM, because it doesnt pass the subnet mask through its routing updates! I need a new computer!"

Trust me, itll work.

 

Re: damn.

Lol imma try it now.

Just hope Mom doesn't do some browsing and run across this thread.:-D

 

she can barely check her email :-D

 

Actually i think i got in trouble for that... Totally didnt expect it to work out like that.

 

lol. how did u get in trouble?

 

Hey, @KingSteve: Who suggested the idea in the first place?

rolleyes

Yes, you guessed right, the BOFH!

(me)

:-D

@zDawg32: hope it works out for you!

 

:-D

Have a read, you may enjoy it.

Then reconsider the brownies situation.

 

Some guy named Simon apparently. ive read some a few of his pages before. pretty funny stuff.

 

Surely you should've known it was IDE before buying? Epic noob failure!

 

That is a pretty epic noob failure zdawg you've been here for two years now.:-D

Get a plain business card and draw round a sata connector,then draw round an IDE connector,label them IDE and SATA.

Laminate,then put on your keyring.

 

didnt bother to look at the box!
lol going to bestbuy tomorrow

 

If you do that again, just follow the advice in your sigrolleyes, then you won't care.

 

Despite the 'Epic N00B Failure' nature of that purchase, of course you could always use that as an excuse to upgrade your mobo.
- Then again, maybe not - you'll 'prolly end up buying a Commodore 64 mainboard on the cheap, or something.LOL

 

someting tells me im never gonna hear the end of thisrolleyes

 

Whatever gave you that idea?rolleyes-D:-D

 

Noob.
