How come .........?
How come there isn't an area on here for people who either want to sell a computer or want to buy one?
My PC is working just fine but my Dell Inspiron 8100 is running out of gas. I need to get another laptop. Where do I look on TOTV. I put an ad in "wanted to buy forum" and didn't get one reply .

I have had the same experience with a couple of my posts.
If you look, you had 132 hits so people are looking at it. But then maybe they were just curious as to what Laptop and a Flugelhorn had in common. Since I do not have a laptop to sell that is why I looked. Actually if you look at the Wanted to Buy thread, there are not too many replies to any of them. Some are still at zero. Z

 At very least you should degauss the hard drive, and no deleting or reformatting are not acceptable alternatives.

I still have every hard drive I have ever owned and I have done a low level format on them when not in use. I use to have a program that wipes the drive clean and then writes 1's to all the tracks and then over writes that with 0's. I think it does the entire drive 3 times but for the life of me I cannot currently find the program. |

A large hammer and a cold chisel will do the trick.
