Posted by: Delusion on Feb. 03 2004,1:41 am

This is a picture of my friend's boat. It's brand spankin' new and will probably be the one I'm in most of the time until I can afford one of my own. I believe it's a 22' Laser Vision 2003. It has the largest engine package that comes with it from the manufacturer and I still have yet to get behind it for a good ski run.

Really in the long run use your friends boat as long as you can you'll save alot of $$$$ and be able to  :drink more. Remember the definition of the word boat "A hole in the water to throw money into" :D  

And that's a nice set-up, see ya on the water......

Nice set up, & for once I agree with AZKC.  :bebe  :rotflmao  :D

<00FFFF'>I think that Delusion needs to buy Silver a nice Jet Boat to go with that nice new Ford PU.  I just might know where one is for sale :D  :D   :laugh   And that way, he can ski all day and when he gets tired, he can take the wheel of the Jet and go target shooting with Jet Skis :good  :rotflmao

I think she's wondering if you know something about computers or if you just sell the stuff!.. :laugh

BTW what do you know about lap tops??, I want one but I want to build my own like my desk tops, where the hell can you buy all the stuff to build one???, can't get an answer nowhere, WTF is it some top secret shit???... :angry  :stupid  :stupid


Posted by: BigBoyToys on Feb. 10 2004,7:03 pm

<00FFFF'>Ohhhhhh, got it :stupid
I'm not sure what I do to them.  Guess I could sell them, and I could probably fix them.  I've fixed 1 or 2 of them in my Lifetime :D  :laugh

Ok, here's a serious answer Silver;  I used to own a computer store, but got out of it because I was bored.  I went to work for a Nationwide company doing field service work that fixes computers, printers, servers, routers, etc and we have some Major corporate and Government contracts.  I am the Primary Tech for the State of California Cisco Routers.  If the State of CA has a Router go down, I am the first tech to get assigned to the call....no matter where it is.  I am also a Nationwide Lead for the Gateway Plasma TV Installation Service :(   My specialty is Networking but am capable of just about all IT related things.  I currently hold many Certifications, A+, MCP, MCSE, MCDBA, CCNA, About 30 Dell Certifications, Many Lexmark Certifications, and a few more.  I went down with a work related injury on August 15, 2003 while installing a Gateway Plasma TV and have tried to go back to work 2 times since, to no avail.
I do have many parts here at my house, leftovers from my computer store mostly.  So, the answer to your question of repair computers or sales, the answer is.....YES :laugh  :D


Posted by: BigBoyToys on Feb. 10 2004,7:05 pm

<00FFFF'>Art,
Laptops are proprietary.  Gotta go to the Manufacturer for parts.  I know a little about them :D   I remember the first time I had to replace a MBD in one....I was so intimidated (I hate tiny parts) but it's a piece of cake now.  Haven't found one yet that I couldn't fix :break  :rotflmao

<00FFFF'>Well, we do get parts shipped to us brand new from Dell, Micron, Gateway, and a few others.  We are warranty service providers for many of the manufacturers.  However, they usually want us to send the bad part back to them.

Yeah but the stuff ain't generic, Dell or anybody else don't make motherboards etc, who makes the motherboards for them?, isn't there a place to buy generic stuff for laptops?, who makes the cases and stuff??, I can't get an answer nowhere, seems like it's some top secret government dealio!.. :angry  :laugh


Posted by: BigBoyToys on Feb. 10 2004,8:17 pm

<00FFFF'>All the manufacturers have the stuff made in some foreign country.  It's proprietary :(  There is no such thing as a Generic Laptop.....at least I've never seen one.
Try this website.  They have alot of Laptop components

I have a few Jet Boats for sale.....I think ALL of them would look great being towed behind Silver's new truck :D  :good  :laugh
Posted by: AZKC on Feb. 11 2004,12:18 pm

Just to stay off topic :laugh  is the white hydro looking one still around


Posted by: GoFastRacer on Feb. 11 2004,12:27 pm

I thought you sold that already!.. :stupid
Posted by: BigBoyToys on Feb. 11 2004,12:38 pm

<00FFFF'>I did sell it, and it was sold again.  IN fact, I sold it 1 hour before I headed out to AZ to pickup my Biesemeyer after buying it back.  Current owner of the Hydro is Sanger-Rich on the Hot Boat boards.

The Suburban is for sale though :D


Posted by: AZKC on Feb. 11 2004,1:45 pm

Was that the one that was for sale for around $2000.00 after you sold it.

<00FFFF'>Yes.  He made some $$ off it.  I purchased it for $1k off of Ebay, took a few parts and seats out of it that I needed, started sanding it down until I saw all the Bondo on the front end, sold it for $1500.00, the buyer let it sit for a month, lost interest, and sold it for $2k.  Funny how things work :D
Posted by: BigBoyToys on Feb. 11 2004,4:24 pm

<00FFFF'>So Delusion and Silver, you two ready to buy a boat?  Get them while they're cheap....prices go up in spring.  I have A Daycruiser for sale, a Gull Wing Jet for sale, and a Tahiti Jet for Sale.  All in various stages from Turnkey to add motor and interior :D

Here's a pic of my favorite Jet I own.  I hate to sell it but I won't drive it much anymore since I built my V-Drive.  I want my Winter price of $5500.00 for it, turnkey and go :good  And yes, you can ski behind it :eek  :D

Posted by: BigBoyToys on Feb. 16 2004,2:43 pm

<00FFFF'>I don't know Silver, ya's may want to check out the post I put in the classified section this morning.  It sure would look great behind your new truck :D  And you could pull Delusion water skiing and if he gets ya upset someday, just grab the handle and squirt him with the spray :laugh   Just Kidding, you two seem like a great pair.  Best of luck to ya's both :good

Did I mention that I give a discount on boats for Havasu Doug Forum members?  I'll deliver within 1000 miles :eek  :D  That offer is good for a Limited time only as long as it's around the Needles event time :laugh
