I'm in Sweden actually… These Japanese characters are supposed to be
my name, according to Google Translate, I have no Japanese background
whatsoever, sorry, other than that my favourite instrumental group
tour Japan and there are a lot of Japanese text on many of their
albums…

Anyway, I don't need more than one Eee PC anyway. Originally I bought
one and later I bought another one for my wife, but she doesn't need
hers these days anyway, so I really don't need to repair mine; she
approved that I could take hers. It was, however, a disappointment a
few hours ago when I found out that I can not add the broken machine's
RAM to the other machine; it just isn't place for two RAM boards…


Kind regards

Maybe I did, but no. Japanese. :)
