I'm looking to transfer to Ketting University, one of U.S. New & World Report's Top 15 engineering schools, from Central Michigan University, one of Playboy's Top 100 Party Schools.

Kettering was formerly known as General Motors Institute. I think you see where this is going.

I need to rais enough money to cover basic fees and a deposite on a new appartment. I have a PayPal account if you're interested. PM me with any donations, I'll accept $1 or more.

I'll take whatever extra you got... I'm doing part-time right now, and each course (12 weeks, one night a week) is costing me just shy of a grand.

If my baby don't love me, I know, I know, her sister will.

d00d, do you live in the U.S.? You can get around 12 grand a year in federally subsidized loans + pell grant if you go full time. That puts you in my position, needing the money to register and move.

Nope. Canada.

I can get up to $11500 cdn in loans per year from the government, plus a grant. I'm only doing part time right now while I save up more cash for the $23500 full time one year program...

Make ya a deal. Design me some seat spacers to raise my extended cab seats 3"'s and I'll donate. I just need a list of materials to get, bolt size's and lentghs and materials that I could use. I'll donate $20 and if they are really good perhaps more.

Whoops, sorry. heh. I need those to. what's your paypal?

Here's the closest thing to a <A HREF="http://www.fordf150.net/howto/subbox.htm" target="_new">picture</A> of them that I can find.

The more I think about it the more I realize I'd have better luck designing them myself. you know since I already have the truck and can easily find out the dimensions. With that said what would you recommend as material? I'm sure wood could be used but I'm not sure if it'd work out that well. I'm still going to send you your $20 donation cause you deserve to go to that school.

This is a rather shameless promotion. In my days we used to sell advertising space on our t-shirts via ebay or something. Actually we didn't. But we did get our Uni education prettymuch paid for. Just the living costs and travelling etc. had to be coverd by myself. Pity, I was in the last of the students to get grants in the UK.

Oh, the REAR seats, OK, I would probably use rubber if I could, but wood would do the job quite nicely. Or you could use plastic planking, like they use for some decks and park benches. Wood would be cheaper and easier though.

Hey, I'm willing to work for the money also. And sell things. I'll sell a two month old Soyo SY-BA6+III with upgraded main power capacitors (A $4 plus service value) for $45, or an Abit BE6-II with upgraded main capacitors (A $6 plus service value) and oversized heatsink for $50. Or a Celeron Tualtin with Powerleap iP3/T package for $129. All of these are retail boxed and will come with receipt! Any kind of computer service you need for a good price. 10mbps SMC universal network cards (with the 10 base T, 2 based coaxial, and 15-pin connectors) for $3 each, up to 30 available! Gateway heavy duty steel ATX convertable cases for $10 each! SCSI external 5.25" cases for $6, 20 available!

Or a 1989 Ford Crown Victory, with good AC, in excellent condition, only 55k miles, for $1800!

Are those NICs ISA or PCI?

The ones I mentioned are PCI, I also have some ISA's with the same features and same SMC chip, if you need them. Tell me how many you might need of each kind and I'll count them for you.

Well I could use 2 ISA and 2 PCI NIC cards (as long as they have a RC-45 plug)... (those things can get handy with repairing old PCs who need some big apps which can't be put on FDs and can't read rewriteables)... but do you also ship to Holland and how should I pay if I don't own a creditcard?

Hmm, shipping to the Nether Region...unless you mean Holland Michigan (LOL), er, better send a money order from a U.S. bank, or an American Express travelers check, or a Western Union money order, in U.S. funds.

Maybe I can use PayPal for it... although I think you need a credit card for it (I never used it), but maybe I can find someone who owns a creditcard and let him pay it (ofcourse I will pay him back).

Well, there are various ways to get money into a PayPal account, you'll have to look into it I guess.

Well I get the following prices:
US to The Netherlands: package:
<A HREF="http://ircalc.usps.gov/speed.asp?Country=Netherlands&Pounds=1&Ounces=0&cmdSubmit=Continue&Contents=1" target="_new">http://ircalc.usps.gov/speed.asp?Country=Netherlands&Pounds=1&Ounces=0&cmdSubmit=Continue&Contents=1</A>
So how large do you think it will be, and how heavy? It doesn't matter if it costs 2 weeks to be here.

Also got other things like: heatsinks, fans, small car radiator?

They wont be of much use for me, cause I don't have a CPU for it or a empty system to install it in (well I got a GF2 MX (the cards you don't like) laying around and I also have a spare HD... but that is all).
