Yeah we got Fry's here.  Guess I'll l have to go down and maybe take the
machine with me - get a replacement. $49 is cheap enough to save the comp.

Rocky,

I know there is a Fry's in SD, but not how close your are to it. I bought a
discontinued 120G 7200 rpm Toshiba Sata that was a special on the wall where
the Hard Drives are for 49.  Be sure to determine if you Laptop uses IDE or
Sata.

 From the Las Vegas Fry's.
