Good Luck

[pinball wizard]

that should be worth some money.i had something like that when i was a kid,it was probably newer that yours,but the track and caboose look about the same.

[bfree]

I now know that getting it from an "estate sale" really means finding it at my local Goodwill store.

[luckydog]

thats creative advertising

[bfree]

Works for me!!

[luckydog]

i found a portable philco stereo replica record player earier this week for 3 bucks at goodwill

it was missing 12 volt wall wart but i found one at home to use

the on/off switch on the arm was not working so i bypassed it

it plays and sounds good, nice looking too

i bought an older dell laptop on ebay with wifi all setup on it for $81.00 shipped

but, i didn't have wireless setup at home

i stopped at goodwill bargain barn today and found a netgear wireless router with power supply for 2 bucks

Netgear WGR614 v8 54Mbps Wireless Router | eBay

after checking online all i had to do was a router reset to clear password
so while i'm waiting for the computer i've set my wii up wireless for starters

the router works great

[compirate]

do you need a key to log in to it? otherwise neighbors will be stealing your wifi!

[luckydog]

only neighbor within 100 feet is 91 years old with no computer

I'm a "hot spot" now

[luckydog]
