Laptop upgrades
I was thinking, since I don't have to buy a new light for my bike for $50 that I might look to see how much a new laptop hard drive would be for my old Dell Inspiron 1100 and what do you know? they cost $50 for 160gb. I also found 1GB ram for only $30. I'm seriously thinking about getting the hard drive but then wait until next month for the memory. I really want to upgrade my laptop because it's soooooo slow and it never has any space for anything. It's only a 20GB hard drive and with windows installed and nothing else there is only 8GB available for programs and some of the programs I have take up a lot of space. I'd also like to install EQ on there and I can't because there is no space for it and with only 256mb of ram it's not fast enough for EQ.
Mini Pump
When I got my Dell DJ battery, pump and bike frame bag in the mail on the same day I blogged about how none of them were the right size, the mini pump was the right size, it's just that the gauge wasn't working right.
Well, last night I was pumping some air into my tires and I was looking at the numbers on the gauge. I was thinking that the needle was going to up a lot, near the red but that wasn't the case at all. The number 20 is like really close to where the needle starts and I only need to put in 20.7 psi and the needle was at the 20 mark. I thought I had to make the needle go near wh ere the red was lol. I guess I was wrong, way wrong and the pump does what it is supposed to do. Thank goodness.
