Hey coders
A friend of my dads had a computer that was not working ( it was firing up, but no signal to the Monitor) so she was getting rid of it, I went and got it and within 10 mins i had it up and working wahooo; It's a HP Pavilion Micro Tower running Vista, It took me 2 days to format and get all the Updates from Microsoft, and it's running really sweet, Plus it came with a 20" Dell Flatscreen, It's got a DVD RW Drive and a 250 Gig HDD and 2 Gig of Ram, Plus Card Slots for all Memory Cards. The best thing about it is, its got a FIREWIRE Slot cooll;
This below is why i am as happy as a Pig in S*it
A few weeks back i was after getting a cheap Camcorder and when on Ebay I saw a JVC Camcorder, I put a Bid on it and WON it, and believe it or not I got it for £12.50 + £9.00 Postage ( it came with Battery, Charger, a £70 Light that fits on the hotshoe and all is in Pristine condition just like it came out of the shop) lmao; But I had a Problem of Connecting it to my Laptop, as It doesn't have a Firewire Slot.
Plug it into the HP Pavilion and i can control it all from the Computer...
Its funny how things work out, before i got the computer I was thinking of all different ways i could get the camcorder running, and even bought a Firewire to USB Lead hehaho;
Just thought i would share this with you all
