Back from the Blast furnace

I got back from the computer markets. Just under $100 bought me: a 40 Gb IDE drive; an 80 Gb IDE drive; a 4 Gb Media player (hopefully one that won't be nbusted with in a month this time); and some cables. All in all the trip was economical. I left at 10am, and was back home by 1:30pm, and in that time also had lunch at McDonolds (don't normally eat there but it was right next to the bus stop and air conditioned) and shopping at ALDI.

But what a day - here's the forecast:

29°C | °F
Current: Clear
Wind: S at 26 km/h
Humidity: 62%
Sun
Clear
30°C | 22°C
Mon
Mostly Sunny
27°C | 22°C
Tue
Mostly Sunny
31°C | 23°C
Wed
Mostly Sunny
28°C | 21°C






Gasp! Maybe I should have bought am extra fan at ALDI for $15.

Nice haul.
We need to hunt out a SATA drive for a laptop that we've been given. Most of it is in working order but no hard drive and the keyboard doesn't work. Better than nothing though and both ours died last year.
Shouldn't be hard to find really. Just have to wait until we can afford it.
