In fact, friends up the road offered to lend me one after reading my post.<br /><br />Ohio, our eggplants have done well.

And the hard disk didn't die, so I got back what I wanted. Still, two to three years? That's ridiculous, don't you think?<br /><br />Patrick, I will do what you said if necessary. I just need to wait until I've received the new computer before I cross that bridge.
