Buying NON Amernican. (from Canada)

I just ordered a European laptop (Clevo). Bit of a pain getting my credit card company to accept the overseas transaction, but now that it's gone through, delivery time is forecast as about four days !!!

I haven't bought anything new as of recent, be it made in Canada or anywhere else for that matter.

And the majority of what I've got in the past few years I got from thrift stores and secondhand shops or as gifts from close friends.

@Sidewinder I hope you get along just fine with your thrift store computer.

@ffony :) Hasn't let me down, yet.

And it's a lap top that was given to me secondhand by my Father when he got a new one.

@Sidewinder Nothing wrong with that. At present I'm using three fairly ancient laptops, none of them bought new; all, with Windows deleted and Linux Mint installed. The new one will have Mint installed at source. (Actually Windows 3.0 wasn't too bad :).)

I've already got rid of Fecebook. Wonder what's next?

@supersnipe sorry, Facebook. Genuine errot.
@supersnipe Uh huh. 😆

@MasterLee I was going to say I'm glad about how much you all love each other - but of course that's just so much false propaganda.

@jshm2 Actually I do live in a fairly remote small, friendly town; and thank goodness for that. You sound like a boorish big city rube . Two short words to you; and you're blocked.

Don't worry, it isn't you. Jshm2 has been a dink since the day he joined here! 🤭
