I was able to do mine for $50 vs the $150 I would have been charged. The hardest part was figuring out how to disassemble the monitor top to get the LCD screen out but I was able to find specific directions for my laptop online.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861482393432330011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-65631974186200880792013-08-17T22:13:36.489-04:002013-08-17T22:13:36.489-04:00"On the road again . . .

That TV/cord connection probably kept you from having a nervous breakdown... Madison saved the day via her boy pal! If it makes you feel any better, my former boss...who had one of those RVs that start somewhere in the $600K range...had quite a few adjustment issues during his first few months of ownership as well...

Quality control seems to be non existent in the RV world. Glad you're on your way.

Whenever possible I scale the recipes to feed 2. We almost always have company on the weekend, and when I do have leftovers they become lunch the following day. You'll also notice that I do a lot of Asian cooking. I've found that the portions are right-sized for us. I hope your weekend is off to a great start.

Bummer about your computer, but good news from the Geek Squad that it is was only your screen. They've done a good job of transferring everything to a new one for us if you eventually need them to. Hope the issues with the coach work themselves out. I see Sweetie is enjoying hanging out on the grass. <br /><br />Have a safe trip and I look forward to more updates on your adventure.<br />Sam Sam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.com
