Yet another trip to Frys.<br>
<br>
-- replaced 400 watt power supply with 500 watt PS.<br>
-- installed new DVD burner (this one burns double layer, which is nice,<br>
I think)<br>
-- Noticed SATA data cable also charred, so replaced that also.<br>
<br>
Hopefully this is the last WTF for the year.<br>

PS You might be an Old Fart, if your computer case is IBM beige. I asked<br>
for a DVD burner with a beige face plate, and the young sales clerk said,<br>
"I've never seen anything but black." Sure enough, Fry's has only black<br>
computer boxes. Beige is dead. RIP<br>

What's a computer case? Most of mine are just components held together with bits of aluminum and no covers. :)<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br>
