Figure [1]: A week of downtime due to computer upgrades

Michael Last week, I spent time under the living room table with my unscrewed computer. Recklessly, I had bought new hardware from an online retailer. For the insiders: a 30 GB hard drive and a Netgear RT314 router. Now I'm in seventh heaven, and Angelika is also surfing the internet at top speed from her computer, as the little router simply turns one DSL connection into two. And one more unfortunate piece of news: our newspaper vendor can no longer get the Süddeutsche Zeitung from his distributor. This hurts a lot because we used to shell out $4.50 every Saturday to read the magazine that comes with the Friday edition. Tip for visitors: you could make us very happy if you bring us one, two, or many SZ magazines, it doesn't matter from when, they're just timelessly good.
