Ickie has informed us that his computer has bit the dust. Got a water leak and :pop4::pop4:. Anyway we would like to start a fund raiser to replace it. We need about a grand. I know it's a bad time of the year for something like this and with the job market being as bad as it is. So believe me every penny will help. Also it we have a few members that just wanna donate 500.00 a piece that is ok too...lol. We sure could use everybody's support in this matter....Mike BTW, we will set up a one button press for the donation. Ron keeps everything at our site running smoothly for our enjoyment at no pay.

Ill try to scrape up a few bucks.... albeit a bit tidy. I've been basically out of work for over two years so cash is tight.

I'm happy to kick in a bit. Mickey D's suggestion regarding household insurance coverage for the damage might be worth investigating, although I don't know what Ickie's personal situation is.

I will donate as well when I get paid on the 1st! Between going to the inlaws for Thansgiving and buying X-mas I am tapped out till then. We will make Ickie like new again though... Is there anything left salvagable I the tower like the drives, or did it all bite the dust?

I used the "Donate" button. I'm certain the money will get at the right spot. :jump:
Hope this "'puter for Ickie" action will be a great success.

Cheers,

Thanks fellas,
I can't see a separate "Donate" button either so use the standard button for now. I appreciate all you guys chipping in:applause:.

I only have a few minutes, but I am VERY HAPPY TO HAVE WINDOWS & AGAIN!I got a new computer tower and it was winders 8 so as soon as I got home I unplugged the hard drive and installed my 2 drives from the blown up computer, added the drivers and missing updates and walla, I have everything, I am going to have to re register it at M$, but winders 7 and all my stuff is worth it. Once again thank you.:jump:
