    I just wanted to wish everyone here a VERY Merry Christmas and a Happy and SAFE New Year.

    The past several months have brought us a long way in modding the Toughbook. I look forward to what the next year will bring. I am pleased to be associated with such a talented group of people.

    Thank you one and all!

    Ive been around watching the fun and playing with 5 new cf-19chgcxbm notebooks we recieved here at work. They have internal GPS that makes the one in my cf-28 look like a rock. And no they are not the same board, I looked to see if they would fit in the stock spot on my cf-28.

    May your hard drive crash,
    your LCD crack,
    and your keyboard get gunked up with goo...

    Then you'll have a reason,
    to enjoy the season,
    with a brand new/used toughbook too!!!

    :p

    ps. to Modly, hope you come around on God. You deserve to be blessed; seriously.

    Busy time of year for us. I check in every once in a while to confirm that you folks are still doing your outstanding job of helping out folks.

    I continue to be dazzled by the depth, accuracy and patience reflected by the majority of answers.

    Capt. and Mrs. Dogfish wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I feel I have made a lot of new friends from Cape Flaherty to Key West, all due to a few questions about an old CF-28 for the dredge. Please remember our brothers and sisters in harm's way if only for a minute. You might enjoy this excellent applet for testing your Toughbok sound card...

    Dear all,
    Besides being a toughbook nut, I'm also into parrots and here's a gift of feathered cheers for the holidays.

    Christmas Pet Parrot
    One day, shortly before Christmas, a man was shopping for gifts for his children, and went into a pet store. The owner showed the man the usual array of pets, puppies, kittens, hamsters, etc., but the man said he was looking for something a little more unique.

    The owner said, "I might have what you are looking for!", and took the man into the back room, where a bedraggled looking parrot sat on a perch. "This is Chet. He is a perfect Christmas pet, because he sings Christmas songs."

    The owner took a Bic lighter out of his pocket, lit it, and held it under Chet's right wing just far enough away to keep from burning the parrot's feathers. Immediately Chet began to sing, "Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way." Then the owner held the lighter under Chet's left wing, and the squawky sound of "Silent night. Holy night" poured out of Chet's beak.

    The man bought the parrot on the spot, and took him home. His children were in bed when he got home, so he decided to check out Chet's talent for himself, just to make sure he hadn't been tricked.

    He lit a match, held it under Chet's right wing, and sure enough the bird began singing "Jingle bells.", just like before. Moving the match under Chet's left wing produced the same results as in the pet store. "Silent Night."

    Being of a curious nature, the man decided to hold the match between Chet's legs to see what would happen. Immediately the parrot began to sing, "Chet's nuts roasting on an open fire..."

    May your screens shine bright and your batts last through the merry nite!

    A Blessed Christmas one and all.
    Ron

    Merry Christmas to y'all.

    Santa didn't bring me any ammo. Sniffle. I'll have to go out and buy some, so I can fire off the new toy I bought myself for "an early Christmas present". :D
