You do not need an account with http://cubeupload.com/ either and I do not think they recompress the images at all.
I like to have all computer related pictures in one place but when posting images for some other forums I do not use my account.

Could we have all of this image hosting talk moved elsewhere please mods?

Also, I dunno why I was worried about the keyboard on the Latitude CP; I think I've fixed it just by fiddling with the keys (without even removing them).

OK, I didn't leave it available making up my mind this time. Just bought a CM-32L the moment it popped up. Ebay is extremely slow with it's e-mail notifications, so I don't use them, I just cycle through my saved searches every day. The last 5 times a CM-32L popped up on eBay, they sold very quickly. So when this one came up for $150 (well $150.46 total with overseas shipping,) and I actually had the money for it, I just bought it immediately. This may be a big mistake... But I couldn't just sit and watch another one get snatched 😀 Now, I just hope the adapter is adjustable to US standard, but they aren't that expensive if it isn't.

I definitely noticed, I just expressed my extreme jealousy outside of VOGONS. 🤣

I did the exact same thing last year on a CM64. I was looking over the current listings and three new items were added while I was looking. My eyes saw BIN $99.00 and in under 15 seconds I owned it. From the instant it posted to the time I bought it, the seller told me he had not even closed the window before I bought it, 🤣.

I just bought this CT2760 a few minutes ago. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Creative-Labs-Sound-B … E-/321640799620?

Bit more of a fight than I wanted, but I really wanted it. I guess it leveled out the good deal I got on a Gigabyte GA-5AX rev 5.2 I bought in November for 0.99 euro and nobody bid against me. I would have though that was a more popular board. It proven to be my favorite in my SS7 mobo collection. The AWE32 I just bought will be plopped right in it as soon as it gets here.

oh, haha, whoops - didn't see that's where it was.

Anyhow, the upshot is that it looks like automatic image thumbnail/embed feature is finally returning thanks to Qbix and Snover, don't want to get your hopes up but it's being tested right now before enabling it. 😀

A buddy of mine has a computershop and gave me a GREAT deal on a brand new linksys 8-port kvm switch. It was in his warehouse for a long time so i could have it for 25 euro. the best part is he added 8 brand new fitting cables for this unit so now i can have a bunch of retro pc's on one monitor and make some room.

nice one, i'm happy with it!

Nice to see you decide going to save route.. Because if choose two different form factors..

£50 is actually a great deal for a CM-32L!
