A glimse of the future It's now Feb 22, 2001 and the warrantee on the Presario 2000 I bought in Dec of 97 is up. I'm getting ready to install the Chinese replacement motherboard with Cyrix M3 GX 1000mhz chipset I bought at the computer show for $250. Let me get the instructions out here. 1. Place computer on or near electric stove and ground self. 2. With bread knife or other instrument break Compaq warrantee seal. 3. Remove one screw and open case. 4. Pull wires from board and push them aside. Do not worry they have key and fit back nicely. 5. Remove (big joke) 2 Gig hard drive and throw with MB in trash can for recycle. 6. Insert new motherboard and remove 32 terabyte Texas Long horn cattle brain storage device from shipping take home container. 7. Install in computer and close case. 8. If problem don't call Fuchi. He now new ambassador to China President Kemp just appoint him. That was easy enough. Now let me hook up the sattelite download link to the internet. I can't wait to see the full motion video hologram of President Kemps speech. He's giving an award to some guy named Chriss at CCC(Caldera* Compaq Cyrix) for his pivotal role in redefining the home PC back in 97. That was the start of the decline in Intel. The quake in 98 almost finished them. They keep saying they're coming back. Spencer Kat printed a rumor that they are building something code named HAL 9000. It's supposed to contain 9000 Pentium MMX they collected from recycling cans back in 97. But everyone knows them by now. The Hal 9000 probably won't be out til 02 if ever. It's rumored that Norda of Caldera will become CEO of Cyrix next year. I hope he's good. Cyrix has been going to $50 and splitting every year since 97. They now have a market cap of $8 billion an I'm still hanging on to the 1000sh I got in 96. I am sure glad I sold the Creative and Rockwell stock back in 97. They and a bunch of Diamond stealth guys went down the tubes after the 5GX86 announcement. * In the greatest lawsuit in history Caldera(formerly Novell Dos 7, formerly Digital Research) sued Microsoft and won an unprecidented 20 billion in compensatory damages and 60 billion in punitive damages for Microsofts copywrite infringement. They bought the MS tradmark at the bankruptcy auction and retired it in 99.
