I ordered a new Dell computer last week and it is suppose to be delivered tomorrow. The timing is perfect because a buddy of mine spilled a beer on my keyboard today. I  broke out the hair dryer but shift key and volume keys are not working very well. I have to hit the caps lock key because the shift key is not working. I  will be glad when tomorrow comes.

John I think you will like it alot.  My wife has an Inspiron laptop that's about 4yrs old and mine is a Dimension 8100 that I bought 2yrs ago I think.  Both have been trouble free.  Hope to get another 2 yrs use out of mine with a few upgrades.

I have been pretty happy with my Inspiron 8000 that I have had for 3 years now.  Only problem I have had was the screen burning out, but that was replaced under warrenty (took a little longer to fix then I would have liked though..).  But overall I like it...might pick up a desktop someday so that I can actually use this laptop as a laptop...it hasn't moved from my desk in a loooonnnggggg time.

:flag: I love my Inspiron 8200.  Better than any other computer I have had.

My 8200 has been 100% trouble free for over 1 1/2 years.  It's been the best machine I've owned!!!

Congrats on the new PC! :thumb:

 

You may want to spend $10-$50 and get a new keyboard for your old one though.

It is sitting here in the living room in the boxes. I am going to load Norton anti-virus befor I set it up on line. It came with Maccafe (sp) and I don't care for that program.

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.

      It's like saying Bill O'Reilly is "just" a journalist.         Lauren Fix, widely known as "The Car Coach," is a prominent automotive journalist, television personality, and self-identified conservative. She is a frequent contributor to right-leaning networks and platforms, offering commentary that intersects the automotive industry, consumer economics, and conservative political perspectives. [1, 2, 3] Media and Commentary Network Contributions: Fix serves as the National Automotive Correspondent for Newsmax and is a frequent guest on Fox News and Fox Business. Video Platforms: She has contributed to PragerU, where she has hosted videos critiquing government mandates on vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Core Positions Anti-EV Mandates & Fuel Policies: Fix regularly critiques government subsidies and mandates for electric vehicles (EVs), framing them as impractical and burdensome to the average consumer. She advocates for consumer choice and supports traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Economic Analysis: Her commentary often emphasizes the impacts of fuel prices, inflation, and federal regulations on drivers. [1, 2, 3] Political Alignment: On her public channels, she actively supports deregulation, "drill baby drill" energy policies, and the removal of government restrictions on auto sales and manufacturing. [1, 2] For analysis from Lauren Fix on how consumer automotive choices can align with political leanings:

      AFM Disabler Question

      Wouldn't swapping out the original AFM/DFM parts for a complete Delete Kit be the best route to go if one could afford to go that route?

      It comes with directions but yes, generally, it's the same.  Also, get you the dipstick stuff to install dipstick so you have one.
