anyone know where to get these laptops cleaned??? i've neoticed that a few buttons are very stiff. not sure if they are sticky or something was spilled under them but it is starting to drive me crazy.

 

Cleaning keyboards is usually a futile venture. There is a guy that sells new ones for $20 that is in Lewisville http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...750255152&rd=1
If you get one I could install it one night at RackDaddys.

 

dude I will get you a new one, bring the laptop with you tuesday and i'll change'em out. Those are the C600 right.

 

That means someone was looking at **** on your laptop before you got it.

 

man that's wrong :D

 

Dammit N-O!! Can't you keep it in your pants? We told you you could do that as long as you didn't return the computer. Geez, now Mr. Ed's got it. That's gross!

 

Sorry, Dazy I was using your laptop! On the bright side, I was looking at your pics on the web :D :D :D

 

this whole topic has taken a turn for the worse...and it just IS wrong...LOL :D

 

It's sad that you have to use my pics at night to satisfy yourself. Can't you find a decent good-looking girl to keep you company at night that you can look at face to face in your house instead of via webcam?

 

He is conscientous about his "oh" face (reference "Office Space" :D

 

Lol, :D

 

what makes you thinnk it wasn't me....?

i'll have it out this tuesday. thanks again. i'll buy you some beers. chris you seem to have a warehouse of parts for these things! let me know what the cost is. its mainly some keys sticking and are kind of hard to push down??? not sure if this will rectify the problem or not.

thanks again

 

Well, at least this means that Mr.ED and Scalliwag will both be joining us this Tuesday.... Welcome back.

 

I am going to try. This car PC is a pretty high priority for me tho. But Chris, like me, has probably switched more of these out than he would like to remember.

 

Yeah, just about every freakin day!

 

Is that coming along ok?

 

let me know how it all turns out...i am interested to see where you mount the screen. i have a buddy who is a professional installer and just went to full time on his own doing installs. i'm not kidding...this guy is probably one of the best in the country. he is doing a lexus sc430 right now. he brought it by my place last night and it is only about 25% done...FRIGGIN AMAZING!!!!

i think he might be doing the work on my 8...but i am very picky on what i want.

 

Where is his shop?

 

he works out of home right now...he just quit best buy to go on his own. i'm not kidding...this guy is good. he is going to be spending about $50,000 on the Lexus and this thing will be completely motorized. i've known him for years and keep in touch with him from time to time. he plans to start a shop after he is finished with this car. and this will be a competition car he i working on.

 

So are we going to have a full house this Tuesday?

 

At the request of Amber, I'll be there.

 

Don't forget your laptop EG

 

i'll be there with my laptop...probably won't be making it a late night. i'm trying to save some money for the trip to padre!

 

The only holdup now is getting the AUX convertor. One place that makes them is on backorder until the end of the month and some guys that just started making them are in beta mode and I did not get on their list quick enough.
I hooked everything up today and tested out the GPS. That was cool.
But I can't play anything through the system yet unless I want to use FM modulation
For now I just mounted the LCD to the dash piece and it actually looks and works very well.
There is not much room under that. I will post some pics tomorrow that shows that. The dash pieces we make are going to give a little extra room.

 

sweet, can't wait to see it.
