Computer news is not good
Aug. 30th, 2010 03:12 pmHeard from the computer shop this morning... The bad news is that my computer's graphics card is busted. It needs a Geforce 7300 GT (or some other compatible PCIE card that's for first gen Mac Pro computers) and the only one they can source is from Apple themselves which would end up costing me $960!
Apparently there's cheaper ones available online but they are hard to search for using only my iPad... It's useful but the most un-ergonomic thing ever invented I think. Not for extended use by Rickies with already-sore necks, at least.
Have been enjoying my computer holiday but missing you all! Especially now I'm less sure when I'll be properly back... I actually costed up my ideal mac mini system and it's $2233 including everything I want. Tempting if I can't find a decently priced graphics card, especially.
So, can any of you google geniuses find me what I need? Pretty please?
