CH> You could donate it to charity.

 RN> I understand what he means.  I had a 14 year-old RCA TV that I was

 MY daughter. For some reason we have four hair dryers. When I emailed
to her saying I was going to donate three to GW she called dah,
emailed me, and Ym'ed me frantically to NOT GIVE THE PURPLE ONE AWAY! It

Apparently  it has some sentimental value to her. It was her first hair
dryer, just for her. When she was oh I think 8. She is 22 now.

SO I wrote back and said, fine but why do we have it? LOL... and why
do we have FOUR?

Okay one was our old one, that's small and has a hinge handle which is
louse. The other three are small turbo type things. Noisy she says but
they still work....
...............

CH> I'm fascinated that we  can watch tv on the puter. Isn't that amazing?

 RN> Do you close one eye?  (-:

 Too busy being glued.

CH> Can somebody explain to me how we do that if say you have a limited
CH> GPU memory but a lot of RAM? (Gigabytes)  (Hey I think I got that right.)

 RN> That depends on how much memory you have on your "GPU." 
My guess is
 RN> you have about 64MB.  You may have more.

 Okay why is GPU in quotes. Did I use that word wrong. I am so
confused. Is the card different from the processor? You know next to
nothing about these things. I am however eager to learn. :) I am
confused about the memory thing. The Card has it's own memory so it
seems according to the box that has Graphics Processing Unit on it.
But like I said, I know next to nothing of these things.

The "circuit board" (is that right?) of the old card) is incredibly
complex and yet I know they make them even smaller and more complex now.
.......

 RN> CH>bk>  Now that you mention it, I haven't much heard from him.

CH> HE (Lee) showed up just in time on CCS so we might be seeing him
CH> again soon as he gets a new feed.

 RN> I think someone found him under his piano giving Gogi Grant singing
 RN> lessons.

 I'm glad he's coming back.
