It is rather bizarre to blame the victim for being put out about it... and though you are doing well now going forward, you are just recovering financially, it's not like you're made of money. Yes, it was an accident, but it's cost matters.
I remembered you had the laptop when you first posted that your computer was fried; it was a "Wow, how'd she do that moment".
Are you going to order everything online? Don't forget there is a Computer Depot near you :-)
Is there a "which philospher of ethics are you?" test? ;~D
*grin*
Dunno.
That would be a good idea if they lived closer...
You scored as Divine Command. Your life is directed by Divine Command: Your god and religion give you meaning and direction. Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations. --King James Version of the Bible Even as a tree has a single trunk but many branches and leaves, there is one religion--human religion--but any number of faiths. --Mahatma Gandhi More info at Arocoun's Wikipedia User Page...

I'm a little concerned that "hedonism" got a higher score than "justice."
Seriously. You'd think she'd never paid for the wedding pictures.

You scored as Justice (Fairness). Your life is guided by the concept of Fair Justice: Everyone, yourself included, should be rewarded and punished according to the help or harm they cause. "He who does not punish evil commands it to be done." --Leonardo da Vinci �Though force can protect in emergency, only justice, fairness, consideration and cooperation can finally lead men to the dawn of eternal peace.� --Dwight D. Eisenhower More info at Arocoun's Wikipedia User Page...

Already ordered online...caught a one day only sale at NewEgg.com. A nice quiet mid-tower with a power source and plenty of bays and slots for $60. And I got it in black to match the monitor and key board.
Hey there --- the 5-hour meeting has begun. this is going to be a long day.
Five hours!?
Lord have mercy upon ya, hon. :-/
That's a great price--not such what you got, but congratulations!! Now do you have to build a computer to go in it?
Just use the Aragorn/Arwen mushy scenes to excuse yourself...
mmmm....mushy scenes....
;-)

The only possible thing I could interpret that to mean is that "life isn't fair." But that's a stretch.
To which I would respond, "life isn't fair, but family should be."
