I would prefer not to go at all I hate doctors and dentists!

In tank news, I'm acclimating my new wrasse and a bicolor blenny as we speak Clam is still backordered. I'm not certain that is going to happen since there is only 3 days left on backorder status before it goes to credit. Maybe I'll look into some more corals next month.

Good Remorning Gang

Kewl on the new fish Hop, bummer on the infection

So Wiskers, you got the flight up nailed down?

My supervisor came back last night, he's not doing so well, I worry about him, anyway they didn't bury us as deep as they could have but we worked hard all night, if they aren't to hard on us we should be caught up.
Starting to get some parts back from the Italy crash, still waiting on the outcome of the airframe. Since its an upgrade F model with "glass cockpit" we would rather not lose it to another bidder

Yep! I got everything all nailed down now It's going to be a killer trip! Now that it's all planned I'm starting to get excited

Is the airframe still good after the crash? Are you planning to rebuild it?

Ultimately my goal is to wait until around late October and order another 6-10 frags and maybe add a clam in there somewhere. I've been doing some tank scheming, but I guess I can't discuss that in the stooge thread

That stinks
Too bad you don't live in Phoenix,.. I have 3 spare power supplies.

If you want you can have George take it out and blow out all the dust, then make sure the fan in it still works - sometimes it will go into a safety mode of sorts if it gets too hot.

If I'm not mistaken the power supply in your type of dell is very standard,.. You should be able to pick up one of them (I think yours is 350W, it will say on it) or even get an upgraded (400+W) model for somewhere around $30 at Frys electronics.

Take in your power supply and compare it,.. if the bolt pattern is the same, size is the same, and the plugs that go into the mother board and drives are there then it should work. Expect the new one to have some plugs yours doesn't though,.. like for the new SATA hard drives.

Good info - should I even bother calling Dell or just try a new power supply? I goggled Dell blinking yellow or something like that and the power supply seemed to be the general answer -

My hard drive is new it needed to be replaced this spring - video card is less than a year old - anything else that may break and I should replace now while we are at it?

Neah,.. the 2 most common things are the Hard drive, and the Power supply, simply because there the two things with moving parts.

If your possessor has a fan (I'm assuming it does) then replacing that would be a good idea, as well as replacing any fans in the case just because there cheap, and they do wear out.

I wouldn't bother calling Dell,.. If you can easily get it local then you can get a higher power one (If you run these things at less than 100% capacity they last longer), and save yourself the shipping costs.

Actually,.. Check with Dell to see how much it is,.. and go with the cheapest option
