So my time will be more on the "boards" to repair than working on the computer. Anyway, I'm 3 podcasts late, so I have to catch up early next week. I have exams by friday and on monday, all my projects are due. Totemo Isogashii desu!!! Btw, the chukyuu lesson was great, until now, I'm still wired to it...:shock: Mata Ne! JP Hi Nathan,
