The computer is dead, Long live the computer.

Well, dead isn't the most accuate word. Blind might be more appropriate. The Screen on my laptop went dim. In a lighted room I can make out the screen just barely. (i would have thought that i might best see it in a dark room, but not so.) So everything else seems to be ok. This is just another sign that It might be time for me to think about investing into a new computer. In the mean time, I will need to get this ancient adding machine of mine fixed, and so if any of you know of a place I should look at to get it fixed, or a place I should NOT go to then I would find this information very welcome.
