All for $150.
if you interested please call xxx-xxx-xxxx. Donot email please because I donot have access to the internet anymore and donot use the computer.

I have to wonder sometimes if people realize how stupid some of their statements are ???

OHHH or is it such a thing as they are not using the computer they are using their cell phone ???

So thats not using the computer but still accessing the internet ..


I know Greg (which is my 21 year old stepson ) his laptop is sick and and Paul is fixing it for him.. Greg is accessing the internet from his cell phone now

Todays. Not as good as yesterday, but notice the spelling.

Please email me if you want it. It is Motorola Netopia 3347 dsl modem, optimal for long range wireless connexions.



And another:

I need a few 2.5" IDE(with a lot of pins) laptop hard drives.

Hi Jim,

If you mean connexion with an x, that's an acceptable British spelling, based on the original Latin:

connecto, connectere, connexi, connexus,

join/fasten/link together, connect/associate; lead to; tie; implicate/involve;



Admittedly it looks old-fashioned and is not much used nowadays.

"Garners Modern American Usage" says the Oxford English Dictionary changed their spelling from connexion to connection in 1967.

But it's still listed in Collins English Dictionary.

:) 

regards,

Martin.

This guy has no idea what he has. Big time. Read the whole thing:


This auction is for a copy of TurboLinux Server 6.0 Lite. This copy has never been installed on a server. There is no packaging or hardcopies of any documentation with this copy so documentation so I’m not sure what the minimum system requirements are but it should run on any decent PC.

I am willing to also ship this item via US Mail. If you are interested please let me know the ZIP Code of the destination and will let you know how much it will cost to ship.

I will delete this ad once the item has sold. If the ad is still listed then the shirt is still for sale.

They spell their number so it is harder for spammers to pick up on. Lots on my forum do that also. :)

It can be confusing for some to understand. I understand that.

This one just seems too awkward.. No addtional information is given about how to contact this person, or anything..

New Apple iPad 2 MC763LL/A Wi-Fi 3G 32GB Verizon Black
$400


And also That $1300 "Mac Pro" isn't really a Mac Pro at all. It's a $700 PC tower running Mac OS X. You can build it yourself and save half the money. Don't fall for that scam.
