You could only be so lucky to have a John

I have great brothers. Not only do I adore them for how fun they are to be around - but it doesn't hurt that they are both "computerly" gifted. My use of that non-existent term proves my lack of skill in this department.


John just "re-did" my computer. (more proof of my ignorance) He spent hours at my house making everything just right. He even "counseled" me into getting a new 24" monitor....which I LOVE!


He tweaked it, troubleshot it, and babied it like his own. He ordered parts, replaced parts, and even monitored the temperature of my video card....frantically yelling
"It's rising! It's getting to hot!" - I felt like I was a nurse in the ER.
The excitement was almost too much to bear.


He taught me how to reassign the boot order in the BIOS - and tried to show me other stuff too.


Eventually he decided to teach Bradley. The only hope our family has for the future - technically speaking....even if he DOES sleep in a spongebob nightgown.


They cleaned the video card and put a new fan on it.

Dats a big fan.The CPU is now running at a cool 22 degrees C and upgraded to stable condition.


I love Jonus. Biggest heart I know.

Thanks for all of your help, John....and for doing it so willingly and not making me feel retarded for not knowing what you know and for never being condescending and for being patient when I am so cluless and giving up watching Law and Order so you can mess with my jacked up computer and for making so many trips to my house and ordering parts and making me get a saweet monitor and for and for and for and forever and ever amen!

  1. Wow, a 24 inch monitor. That's freakin' huge!!! Kevin would be all over that idea. You are sure lucky to live by family, especially family that is so willing to help. Way to go Johnny boy! And...all hail to the Spongebob nightgown!
