I just had to share this. Recently, things have been falling apart and breaking around me at an alarming rate. For example, turn on the light in a room and pop, need to change the bulb. Yeah I know, that happens to everybody.... three in three days??? weird. Then, build 4 dongles and one looks like it may have a bad USB module, again, way out of the norm when looking at the law of averages, but hey, it happens. Turn on the water to the outside of the house and find out that the pipe must have frozen this winter because it's broken and with the valve open, it's spraying water like the bellagio. Never happened before, why now after all these years? Turned on the computer this morning and it reported a CPU failure. Say what?
Did all the normal stuff and best I could get to happen was it would hang there and not do much of anything. Ok, grreat, now I need a computer? Well, I just recently ordered a power supply for my smart strings late last week. Hey, I don't have a new CPU to put in the computer but I sure do have a nifty power supply that I just bought, why not try that??? Replaced the power supply with the new one. Problem solved!! Went to newegg to order another one to replace the one I just used, and they are offering another $10 off what I paid for it just like three days ago. Heck, I bought two! So, like I said, smart strings can give you a better life! That's how I'm looking at it anyway.
