From Laptop to Scanner

Hubby was so disappointed with his laptop last night. He bought his laptop 8 months ago and just last night, while he was playing his favorite online game, the laptop suddenly shut down. Hubby checked it and he can't find anything wrong with it so just this morning, hubby went to a computer technician to have his laptop checked. A couple of minutes ago hubby called up and told me that his laptop's motherboard is not functioning anymore. The technician told him to buy a new motherboard.

I told hubby to buy a new laptop instead of buying a new motherboard. I told him to check out some store online and compare the prices of new laptops. I told hubby to check out ShopWiki.com and read their review and buying guides. ShopWiki.com is a great help to those who are wanting to buy a new laptop or desktops. This site also helps people find different computer accessories from different stores which offers great deals and discounts. I am also planning to buy a new high speed printer and scanner soon so I think it is a must for us to start canvassing for it. I know that through ShopWiki we can find affordable laptops and accesories.

And now that hubby's laptop is not working it means only one thing... I have to share my ever reliable laptop with him till he buys his very own laptop.

I have to go now and start checking out those computers at ShopWiki and I am so excited to find and buy a new scanner and printer that I will use for my newest hobby which is digiscrapping.

Happy Sunday everyone!

Be considerate & send this warning to whomever you know.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:

You should be alert during the next days:

It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.. If you receive a mail called 'invitation' , though sent by a friend, do not open it and shut down your computer immediately.

This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by Microsoft as the most

This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus..

This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.
