      Look good, sounds like he will take care of you well and a very good price.
      I would still want a backup drive tho, either internal or better, external. Better cos its independent of the main computer and God forbid you have to run from the house, you can take it with you easily! Might be good to get the techie to set up windows backup for you. Mine is set for daily at dinner time.
      30 days on parts and 90 days labour seems about right. I would spring for the extra ram, but see how you go, easy to add it later.
      I reckon go for it.

        Man! I feel like a teenager who just got his first hot rod πŸ™‚ Just got it all up and Running two days ago.

        I click on a .skp file and it's open before I finish the click!

        I can orbit with shadows on πŸ™‚ I'm going to like this.

        thanks baz, I got a great setup for a real good price, thanks for the hand holding!

            I haven't had to tweak SUps settings for so long I forget how to!

            when I use the tape tool and double click, it doesn't set a guideline, and when I click and drag it doesn't show a guide,

            same with protractor tool, it doesn't leave a guideline when I click and set.

            I've been playing with my open gl and it hasn't helped. Then in my NVidia setting it says "Let the 3d decide".

              Do you have 'Guides' ticked in 'View' menu?

                Hhmmm, I don't have Guides in the View menu Baz, nor anywhere else ..

                I'm using SUp 5 if that matters?

                  SU5 is going back a bit πŸ˜„
                  But there must have been an option to show/hide guides somewhere.
                  You might have to consult the documentation.

                      So where can I find the documentation? In SUp 5 when I go to Help, all those links point to dead pages.

                      I need to get this tape measure tool issue resolved, I can do workarounds but what a hassle.

                        Joe, suggest you start a new thread, one of the veterans will surely be able to help.
