Ken, our long-suffering business-person once again brought up the fact that I should really be moving off of the flaky machine, so I've just asked him to get me some prices for replacing the motherboard, cpu, and memory. I also threw in a replacement for the broken MSNatural (original) keyboard, and a new (cheap) case in which to put the old motherboard.

I figure it'll cost almost $800! I really don't have that in the budget, but I suppose I'll just pay for it out of the VRTelecom earnings/savings. Can't keep wasting time I could be using to develop money-earners fixing and re-fixing the same stupid hardware problems.
