I was able to hoot up with a program in the floppy drive, access the DOS directory and copy most of the files With everything that I could copied off. I reformatted the hard drive (that erases it entire ly) and relivaded from my copies. That lasted a couple of days when it crashed again A second reformat and reload caught my wife reading the display ads from computer stores in the Oregonian When the little devil crashed the third time- it was really done. We all went to Portland for the day to shop for a new hard drive Mistake number whatever number it was. I've lost track by now We found a busy little computer store out on 122nd My son. a com puter student from high schixil and college hound, was a|yng and that was a big mistake t<x> And in this little computer store was a young w 1 Li haired kid who talked like he knew a lot about computers Never to be outtalk ed. I talked computers with him. explaining my problem and all He too said my old hard drive was an unreliable brand and I should just throw it in the junk But he happened to have a new hard drive in stock that I could just take home with me I think it was the same one the mail order guy tried to sell me And by the way. he said, let me show you the updated model of computer you've got at honk- It already has a hard drive, I 2MB flop^ py and a VGA monitor It happened to be connected to an ink jet printer that I hail been drooling over for several months I thought, what the heck, I can look Biggest mistake of all Number one son's eyes bugged out bigger than life when he saw ihe new lash up And then came the double sales pitch I could get the new hard drive for the machine at home and that would be plenty gix»d for him lake to college Dicn I could get the new computer, printer and such for me at hi « tic “ You've been wanting the bigger hard drive, faster CPU. that fancy VGA iiXHiitor and especially the ink jet printer for a long time Dad Just consider it part of my college expense " And this young kid selling com puters picked up on that in a hurry telling about how he had to drop out of college and work because he didn't have a father to help him through We were about to load up when I realized that wc still short one dot matrix printer, but of course they had one of those tixi The final mistake Oh.
