Re: this is crazy!

Bryant - glad to know it's not just me!

unfortunately of the systems that crashed two were craigslist finds so obviously no warranty and the third and most recent was my wife's old laptop that i had to use in a pinch. fortunately my two shows are just a side thing for fun. i have a "real job" so it's not critical like a livelyhood or anything. i bought two new toshibas WITH the two year warranty for my "real job" and i used one of those this weekend....hadda lay out $60 for vga converter though, which sucked!

about fans - since smoking is still allowed in my venue i use a fan around my equipment for a few reasons. 1. i'm in central Texas which gets HOT so i use a fan to stay cool. 2. it blows the smoke around so it's a little easier to breathe, haha and 3. i use it to cool down the equipment. i STILL should clean out my stuff more often than i do.

as always, thanks for the good advice, conversation and sharing experiences!
