I just had mine croak a couple of months ago and threw it away. I never thought about keeping it to use for spare parts. I had a heck of a time finding one just like it. I finally ended up ordering it from Amazon because the ones at Staples are the newer model with the humongous wrist wrests.
So sorry. I hope you get it up and running again. I absolutely love mine.

Maybe they just threw everyone off
and no one else to post. BTDT.
What do you think threw you, changes in puncuation, etc. according to BOS??nm

She just threw that out there to shut us up, I think
She posts here quite frequently, mostly to whine about her husband, stepson, MIL,and everything else. I don't believe she's really an intentional troll at all, just a complete moron who was trying to dig her way out of the sh*tstorm she started with this gem of a post.
Dang! I cannot see them:(

dang,,, I mean CTL-F10

same thing happened to me; i threw a fit with them. sm
i ended up getting my 4th installation under my initial purchase registration # but they did inform me if it happens again, i will have to purchase. i refuse to although my company requires it. i haven't ran into needing it again but i am sure i will eventually. you can buy the (whatever that external USB thing is called) which allows unlimited installs, but not after your initial purchase and i, like you, was not informed about all that as my company purchased for me and withheld from my pay. win XP does a similar thing and only limits the installs on the software. i think they both are a bunch of BS. i pay for it, i deserve to do what i want with it. can't help my hard drive crashed, etc.
I threw out the ice cube trays. sm
I posted this advice a few months ago. I got sooooooooo tired of going to get ice and finding empty trays in the freezer and some in the sink. So I just threw them out.
About 2 days later, the kids (and hubby) are like, "How come we don't have any ice? And where are the ice cube trays" My reply was, "I THREW the ice cube trays away because we NEVER have had any ice and we NEVER will. At least this way I KNOW that when I want some ice for my soda, there will not be any ice in my house EVER AGAIN!" :)
They all thought I was crazy.
I also put the trash can out in the garage and I hang up a plastic grocery bag on the door handle of the garage door until it is full enough to tie up and go out in the trash can. Otherwise, I get the "TOSS" with spilled stuff everywhere, and the "PYRAMID" and have to get out the trash bags to clean the stuff up.
I shined my house spotless one day and then spent a couple of weeks cleaning just my own stuff. Washed my own dishes, cleaned my own spills, picked up my own clothes, did my own laundry (including towels that I hid for myself) cleaned my "toothpaste overflow" out of the bathroom sink, etc. (of course I cleaned the toilet and washed the floors, because that is just to icky).
At any rate, after the first day, they were washing dishes on "as per needed" basis. After about 3 days, everyone was like, "Why is the house such a mess?"
I said, as I walked over shoes that didn't make it into the "shoe basket" by the door, and totally ignored the "clutter" everywhere: "GEE I don't know, I clean up after myself well enough."
They got the hint. Things aren't immaculate, but much better.
Guess the MQMT threw me off
SORRY
I was in the same boat until I threw a $ amount at him.
Then he said, "What are you talking to me for? Get back to work!"
hears to ears through to threw
Sorry no wonder you are so down on being a Transcriptionist as it is evident you have problems spelling.
Dang, don't apologize ;-)
Like far out, man..LOL. Awesome resolution on both of them (of course I had to save them to my docs, too)  The second one looks like a Peter Maxx drawing, dontcha think?
Thanks for sharing...really need a peace sign here, dang it...oh, no wink either *sigh*
dang, so mad cant even spell right lol

Dang..I can't even spell it!
I am used to working in Microsoft Word. Is this platform a lot different? I am wondering how my productivity will be.
dang...I can't type 210 lph (m)
I wish I could. I've been watching the topic by the OP for ideas on how to get my speed up. Where I live $17 an hour is an amazing amount of money. Last time I worked in house I only made $13/hour and that wasn't that long ago. Thanks for your input! I have to decide by next week and I keep changing my mind.
Dang - I Can't Even Spell

dang I suck!
LOL. I have only had a job for the last 3.5 weeks. Yesterday I hit 700 lines in a day. Thank goodness I have no minimum. But the first day I actually worked, I only hit 279 lines. I get faster and faster everyday. I also learned how to add things into the AutoCorrect option in MicroSoft Word, so that helped too. I expect to be able to hit 1000 lines per day in another 3 weeks. I also can only get in 5 hours during the day while the kiddos are at school. If I choose to work in the evening I have to stop A LOT. Part of the reason it takes me all day to hit 700 lines is that I hear words I am not familair with. Or meds I have to look up. I also go back and proofread all documents twice. Seem I have no minimum requirement I can truly spend a little extra time on each document and be sure it the best I can do. I know, over time, I will not to proofread every document over and over, but I am still learning.
What threw me is that they knew my last name and it is not in my e-mail address.

Yes! The "blue link" thing threw me, too,
Poster above explained the pulling number deal, but still not clear if that is for sure what it means. Oh well! Guess I'll just have to go buy myself something cool for MT Week. Master Card and Visa don't care if I'm a rocket scientist or not! :D
I went into this without prejudice, threw myelf actually, but it seems to get worse...
instead of better. I feel I got a pay cut with almost the same amount of work. Some jobs are great, then you get 3-4 that are heavy in editing and it ruins anything you got with a good 1 or 2.
that's too funny! And you figured out what he was saying...dang
hot dang, what a great website!!!

DANG, I already erased it from my DVR. I could have told ya for sure.
can't wait to hear, I'm sure it's only RUMOR though!
Well, dang. I missed it. What was the big yank? nm

Dang, I had that problem before but don't remember how to fix it.
I will check around to see if I can find out again.
dang! WHAT husband?! I should light a candle...

Dang, I didn't know there was one with a "zoom" button (sm)
now I have to have one of those!

Kind of ashamed to admit I threw daughter's card away
I know some will call me petty. We haven't ever had the best relationship because she has been a difficult kid since grade school. Just really, really hard to deal with and nasty much of the time. I keep trying and trying and trying and trying. I help her out financially when I can, watch the baby every day while I'm trying to work, too. I had tears picking out a card for her, and I put some money in there with a little note to treat herself. Yes, I took the money out and tossed the card. I know it sounds harsh, but I feel like I keep putting forth the effort and barely get a thank you in return. Instead, I get a "what's your problem?" Now my son..I can deal with. At least he treats me with some kindness and he tries.
I think it depends where you live. My parents threw a huge party sm
for me when I graduated with about 150 people. The gifts weren't in the $100 range but it was 23 years ago. I received over $5000 in gifts and that was used to help buy the things I needed to go away to college such as bed linens, dorm furnishings, etc. The rest was used over the 4 years to subsidize when I needed extra for something. Yes, my parents paid for college, to the tune of $25k per year. They were happy to do it and proud when I graduated with honors and got a good job afterwards.
I'm going to do the same for my 2 kids that my parents did for my sister and I. There is nothing wrong with working hard to give your kids the best in life and nothing wrong with celebrating their milestones. If you don't agree with graduation parties, don't go to them, but if you don't celebrate your kids' milestones and make them special occasions, who will?
I threw my back out playing dodge ball in 2nd grade. nm

dang, that is the wordiest article I've ever read. nm

Or discpline time! My kids would be very sorry if they threw things at me or in the house. Two hours
is not too long for them to give you some space. That's really sad for you, but maybe try to rein them in. Can't hurt, right?
I had all those dang ages in my auto correct before. The whole 90-year-old expansion. nm

My 8-year-old threw up on the way home from family celebration Christmas Eve, all over the back seat
Then threw up approximately every hour from 10:00 p.m. until 8:00 a.m. Christmas morning. Not the Christmas I had planned, up cleaning bodily fluids all night. Somehow Santa managed to come overnight, too. My husband, me and the 2-year-old didn't get the bug until last night, it's vicious! Hopefully that's all over now and we can enjoy the rest of our vacation!
Dang Lucy's got a good idea. Now why didn't I think of that because I've been experiencing
