    IBM - China



    Heard yesterday - but it can be only rumours - that a Chinese company bought IBM and their goal is to sell a complete PC, (screen, mouse, keyboard printer..) for.... 75 €

    This is not a typing fault.

    If this is true, the business for the small airco's is almost gone, now it will be also for teh computers.


    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

    Re: IBM - China

    Dez, perhaps I misunderstood you but where can I find this news?

    Since the new look of the website - now some months ago - I'm unable to go to the main page of RE. The browser says I'm not logged in and asks for my password.
    If I fill in the correct password, I'm receiving a message 'Invalid password'
    I resetted it already twice - again today- with same result.
    The program sends me a new password and I can chang it again afterwards without any problem.

    Since then, I always go straight via www.refrigeration-engineer.com/forums

    But I can read all the posts, so that's the most important for me.

    Peter

    Re: IBM - China

    OK Dez, it asks me to log although already in, I log-in and it accepts me, then it is a please wait to be redirected etc. At the end of the time out or if any link it selected it sends me to the forum index.

    Re: IBM - China

    It`s always worked for me.

    You guys don`t know what your missing all the good stuff is on the front.

    It tells us about all the bad things these who can`t get to the front page get up to.

    oooh the stories that have been on there makes your eyes water.
    IF AT FIRST YOU DON`T SUCCEED.
    DESTROY ALL EVIDENCE THAT YOU TRIED!
    and go get a cuppa
