Have been working on the WW interface lately and have grouped icons by country and added some countries to the toolbar. So, Army, Navy units are all under one layer.  |

Well my computer is kaput so I suppose this project is on indefinite hiatus. Too bad as I was pretty close.

No, Im afraid not. It was a defective when I bought it, an HP laptop from 2003, and have had to deal with it since the warranty ran out. It actually lasted longer than I thought it would. This is the tower Im building. The case is the cheap part.  |

...The case is the cheap part. I guess, then, that the most expensive part is the Space Shuttle you will put your new computer into... ;D ;D |

Well it was a laptop so I would have to go to a computer repair shop to access the data on it. I have most everything backed up on an external drive and boy is that a relief. |

No graphics card, no sound card and basically just a workstation. I am taking this opportunity though to work on the strategy/commerce portion. It has elements of Patrician 3 (market/commerce) and Jennifer Government ( www.nationstates.net/) and a little like this political game www.ars-regendi.com/. |

@ Danzig, what reference of laptop do you have?
Disassembly of a HDD on a laptop is easy, you save money...you can do that.

@danzip
I bought a case that had clear sides once...
but it was too much distraction watching the hamsters running around inside on the fans. I you didn't feed them, the fans would stop and overheat the motherboard.
So I had to get rid of it.
And the hamsters... ;D

The drive should be fine it is mostly the fans that quit and the motherboard. And the new AK-47 ventilation system. And perhaps the monitor after throwing it into the Grand Canyon. |
