14:55.50 | dick_turpin | If I wanted a f'ecking Rackmount I'd have asked for one |
14:56.07 | dick_turpin | Supplier: OK well I have a tower here |
14:56.20 | dick_turpin | Whats the spec? |
14:56.59 | boudiccas | and .....................??? |

14:59.14 | boudiccas | and he wants an ongoing business relationship with you? |
15:02.11 | dick_turpin | boudiccas: Its a refurbished supplier I've known him about 7 years now, I know how to deal with them they are like scrap merchants you gotta watch like a hawk |
15:02.51 | boudiccas | sounds like a right muppet! |
15:06.18 | dick_turpin | boudiccas: No gorgeous you have to read between the lines, basically what he's done is strip out the memory and HDD's and intended to sell it to someone 'as is' but would have said.... |
15:06.31 | dick_turpin | "I can do some memory for £20" |
15:06.50 | dick_turpin | "and the HDD's lets say £50" |

16:30.57 | hali | no dracs? |
16:39.35 | bilarh | no this is installing user workstations |
16:39.56 | bilarh | for extra hilarity, the previous admins have had all sorts of partitioning schemes |
16:40.02 | bilarh | and i need to preserve one of the filesystems |
16:40.17 | antiphase | Why are you doing desktop support now? |
16:40.18 | bilarh | which means that for each machine, i have to log in and compare the partition table to the one in the kickstart |
16:40.24 | bilarh | fuck knows |
16:40.32 | wethrin | dick_turpin: You're selling 25x 2GB stick for the same price as one 4GB stick? |
16:52.58 | dick_turpin | wethrin: I know I know I hate our shop I hate it with a vengeance bloody Zen Cart crap |
16:53.39 | DiscordianUK | How much are 25x2Gb sticks? |
