I also suspect that the condition you get it back in (IF you get it back at all) will be less than optimal...<br><br>(in our model rocketry group, we have an expression for when a rocket "shreds" into millions of pieces -- we say it has "re-kitted" itself, meaning that it is in the same or similar condition as when you bought it -- a "kit" of parts. To put it more directly, you need to put the pieces back together...)<br><br>What I'm getting to is that I'd hate to see a
re-kitted laptop... ;)<br><br><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">----- Original Message ----<br>From: Dan Borne <danborne.kde@gmail.com><br><br>Has anyone ever thought of just putting your computer in a foreign language?
