Re: SMP running slow
In Response To: SMP running slow ()

Were you sitting in front of a computer whilst typing this? Imagining so, that is enough to get it magnetised sometimes. Some people have noted that leaving it next to their alarm clock over night was enough to do it.

As I stated in a previous post, magnetism isn't necessarily the culprit, but it's the easiest/cheapest starting point. If a $5/free demagnetism run doesn't fix your problem, then you can worry about the $300/Pricey Full Service. Certainly the latter would fix the problem too, but it would take more cake off your plate.

If you just so happen to have too much cake and need a way to get rid of the surplus, my email address just so happens to be connected to my Paypal account, so you can just transfer over some money that way. In fact, I'd prefer that as I'm going to be buying a new vehicle in the next month or so.

Thanks in advance ;-)
