Should have got me a Pismo, by the look of it. But, well, I have this WallStreet and it's here to stay, and I intend to use the living hell out of it. So, yeah . . .
Any idea about how to procure a budget-conscious bootable DVDROM drive for the WallStreet? I'm being offered one for 80 USD, which somehow strikes as a ripoff, especially considering that the postage will eat up another 30 . . . I don't think I'm ready to spend that much for a mere DVDROM; ideas, anyone? Also - if my display can't keep vertical and needs something heavy to lean against, does it mean my hinges are pushing up the daisies? I've seen an excellent HOWTO that covered the issue extensively, but I am somewhat squeamish about attempting it myself. RAM, HDD, whatever, but the display . . . scary. Or is it some other problem that can be more easily soluble? Another thing: I've read a couple of scare stories about how hard drives with more capacity than 30-40 gig may not be too friendly with the WallStreet . . . should I look no further than the 40-gig Travelstar that I mentioned in a previous post?
