Miraculously I didn't make any mistakes installing the new drive You
have to take the cover off the CPU exposing a whole hai full of computer
chips, printed circuit boards and all that stuff, then take out one of the
floppy drives, put in a new drive with its controller board, hook up the
cables and put it all back together I powered up with crossed fingers and
shoot' It worked without blowing up
After very carefully following the boot up and formal procedures to
the tee, mistake number three I only had a 20MB hard drive What had
started out to be a bargain price for a 40MB had turned into a list price
deal for a 20MB even after the refund, and it took nearly two months to do
Well any way we got all the software installed and things were running
smoothly until a couple of weeks ago when the hard drive “ crashed.”
The guy had told us it was an unreliable brand
And no we had not been diligent about making back-up copies of our
work like all the computer literature advises
It wasn't a bad crash. 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. I know its n*« the final one. jsut the Ijtcst one
None of my old software will drive the new printer Solution to (hat pro
blcm is simple lire computer store has li«s of new software and I guess
we'll have to j o hai k mxmici ihan cither I'd like or my pockcthnok permits

The newly approved school budget
includes some S200.000 for new and
additional computers for all schools in
the county Budgeting the money will
turn out to be only the beginning
While we have leas than 14 of that
invested ui computer equipment, we’ve
recently added to our learning curve
exponentially Multiply our troubles
the past two weeks by more than 100
and you've really got a learning
Bv Ed (ilenn
experience.
For more than two yean we had
computed along on a simple little off
the-shelf PC clone Two disk drives,
green monitor and 640K of memory Nothing earth shattering And then
6 months or »0 ago, we updated with a 20MB hard drive Needed it to
More the multi-disk programs like dBase III. First Publisher and all ol these
articles I write
Confidently, we ordered the new drive from a mail order house Mistake
number one When it didn't come in over a month and our check had long
since cleared, we called The guy we were told we wanted to talk to was
one soother phone, he would call hack When he didn't for a couple of
days, we called again This time he was out to lunch A couple of days
later we did catch up with him
The best I can recall the conversation went something like this the 40MB
dnve we ordered wasn't in and didn't know |ust when it would he But
a just released 50MB would he a lot better It would be in a few days
maybe and would only cost a few dollars more Yes, they did have a hard
dnve in stock (hat could he shipped right away but it was only 30MB and
not a very reliable brand Besides it was about 540 less ihan the money
we had sent
Mistake number two We had run out i f patience and demanded the one
in stock plus the refund The dnve arrived in a couple of days siu UPS
and the refund came in about three weeks

Jenks. applicants for school hoard
and advisory hoard respectively,
allied themselves with neither side
Both, however, joined the parents
group that eventually brought an end
to the strike by employ ing the virtues
of reason, rather than wrestling, and
seeking resolution, rather than vic
tory (both hoard and teachers prefer
ring the more violent »^Xurns) These
concerned, yet diverse voices were
overlooked as the hoard sought to
shore up its single mindedness
Ix>l I be misunderstood, it is not
the opinions of Holmes and Trudeau
that trouble me It is the calculated
attempt of the Hoard to subvert the
democratic process and its refusal to
welcome diverse and legitimate
voices to their ranks, when that op
portunity was present, that frightens
me
Such actions smack of the attitudes
present in China in these troubled
days, attitudes that motivate a govern
ment to repress free speech in the
face of conflict, rather than inviting
opposing views to participate in a
rcconcilitiation of ihat conflict ( )ne
must keep in mind, that the first step
that the hardlines in Hicjmg took in
crushing the will of the people was
to remove all moderate elements
(diversity) in the government
