[Shalom Israel]

We knew how to fix our own bikes, we did not have *FAT KIDS* running around, boys knew how to fix there cars, they had inventive minds and took chances NO OTHER GENERATION HAS...

Whereas we miserable slobs can fix our own computers...

[laney]

I still cannot fix my computer but oh well can't do everything..
Reg: your other post..No not a feminist because I was not ever, NEVER into labeling myself...

Always thought for myself like to DO MY OWN THANG as they say..

Made mistakes, accomplished some, but I like who I am and what I am about and most people I know do too, so I say I am okay..

George Bailey said it all to me:
No man is a failure who has friends...

So can I.

In fact my very first computer was an S-100 computer that had a hand wire-wrapped backplane with each chip individually soldered into their respective daughter boards that I had to custom interface to a surplus teletype. When you say you fix your own computer, does that mean you only pull and plug boards? Fix to me is using a logic probe to find the bad IC and replace it. Anything else is just pop and swap IMHO.

And program our own DVD players.
