081401 - When I returned the computer for Rent-A-Computer, Jennifer asked for
081402 - another $40 per month to include a controller to solve problem
081403 - encountered at ref SDS 9 line 142.  That makes the monthly rental
081404 - about $800, and it still does not work adequately.  It would not have
081405 - the correct keyboard and does not have enough disk space, ref SDS 9
081406 - line 79.
081407 -
081408 - Therefore I decided to use CPU #3, so I can provide the equipment in
081409 - the manner needed at the price quoted to Bill, ref SDS 3 line 147.

081802 - has configured, for about $2,500 which is 3 months rent.  I asked for
081803 - a price for 16 MB of RAM, local bus 2 MB RAM on ATI controller.
081804 -
081805 - He will call back.  Thinks he can deliver by end of week.

0826 -
082601 - I advised I am delivering the computer myself.  Jim said there is an
082602 - alley behind the building.  Make a right turn onto the alley from 2nd
082603 - street, and go to end, just before 1st street.  The last two bays are
082604 - for loading.  Tell the guard I am delivering for PG&E.  I can leave
082605 - the car there for the 20 minutes or so required to accomplish the
082606 - delivery.
