+Dave 2,322 Posted September 12, 2008 Got a new mobo in the mail today from I do not know who , no note, address, nothing. My computer went down a few weeks ago because of the mobo. I was saving up for a new one to buy in 1 Oct. Money is uber tight. Then today my exact mobo shows up via UPS. So who did it? So I can thank them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Zurawski 33 Posted September 12, 2008 Whos says there is no such thing as Santa! (Don't look at me... I didn't do it... got my own problems...) Besides... being the greedy arse that I am... I don't see how a new mobo would make it past "my" computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lazboy 1 Posted September 13, 2008 A case for deDuctive reasoning my dear Watson, Who knew that your Mobo was shot and who also knew the exact type of replacement Mobo you required to fix your PC? There can only be a limited number of suspects. Lazboy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Zurawski 33 Posted September 13, 2008 I say it was a Mobo fairy... Don't look at me like that... Are you telling me you don't have Mobo faries in your state? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Dave 2,322 Posted September 13, 2008 Well only a few people knew my mobo was shot and only one person knew the exact Mobo and that was Fubar512. But he denies sending one. However the package did originate in Memphis. But again C5 says he didnt send one either. So whoever it was thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fubar512 1,350 Posted September 13, 2008 Well, both C5 and myself would agree that you'd probably be far better served by a bottle of whiskey (your recent experience attempting to unplug a laptop adds a lot of weight to this argument). Keep in mind that Newegg (for example) has a warehouse in Los Angeles, one in Memphis, and another in Edison, NJ. It's only 530 miles from the Memphis warehouse, versus, say 580 from the Edison one, or over 2,000 from the facility in LA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Jug 99 Posted September 15, 2008 Me thinks fubar protests too much Who ever did the good deed, good on you. Now Dave can get back to griping about other things. Could be one of those perpetuating tasks though, Dave. You now have to do something good for someone else and pass it on. Tough job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
