ot: the best online computer parts store?

[W. Nick Dotson]

Don't forget the good old weasel (spelling?) card, in in the good ole days, the Braille Display Processor, from VTEK, for which I was Product manager, and 
prior to that the Large Pring Display Processor.  And, there was the Frank (spelling?) Audio Data device, and Speakuelizer (spelling?)...  Things were so 
exciting and simpler then, but I'm so spoiled, I can hardly stand to use my 750MHz XP box anymore, and when I got it, I was in heaven with it's speed.  It 
and 2 500MHz boxes will make up my Linux Farm, when I get up the courage to beg Janina to reboot my lost Linux internal Knowledge Base, as I've lost the 
ability to get my 1 500MHz box to "do right" and lack sufficient knowledge to even begin to know where and how to get it back under my control.  I'm the 
proverbial savage doing Magic where Linux is concerned, but am so very comfortable in the evil Gatesian world.  (sheepish blush)

 Well, there are a couple more things you'll need sighted help
 for. First, as was mentioned, applying cpu compound, and installing
 the heat sink. These days, since the bios screens are gui-based,
 you'll need sighted help with configuring the bios as well. This used
 to not be the case back in the days of text-based bios menus, and
 machines with parallel ports, provided you had a way of speaking text
 sent out the parallel port, a braille blazer being one example of one
 such device.
