RE: [ql-users] Q-Starter
And what cruel devil put as s in lisp? A thermos flask keeps hot things hot and cold things cold - how does it know? Or if you unwrap some cling film from a block of cheese, then eat half the cheese, even though there is half as much the cling film still doesn't cover it? -Original Message- From: Wolfgang Uhlig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 April 2005 17:46 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ql-users] Q-Starter Why did the chicken cross the road ?

Re: Re: [ql-users] PSU
Thanks, John. It's a Toshiba T1910CS (from memory at least) Trouble is, we don't know if the laptop itself is still working. It had been stolen and after it was recovered the power supply no longer works, so he's not prepared to invest too much in case the laptop is now broken too. I've told him I'll try for a few days to get things working for him, after that he's on his own.

Failing that the best bet is probably a computer spares show. What model of laptop is it for?

Re: Re: [ql-users] PSU
Thanks for this offer David, but someone has also offered a cheap laptop which I need to discuss with the owner of the laptop. As it's not mine, I don't want to get into too much DIY if I can help it. I'm hoping to speak to him tonight or tomorrow night to discuss the various offers people have made and see how he wants to proceed. Once again, the generosity and helpfulness of the QL community continues to know no bounds!

I've never been a fan of Turbo but I think he's really moving something. The latest beta test version of Turbo, v4d21, should soon be on the SQLUG site. This one has compiled QPTR's demo_bas (after some modifications). George ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
