My computer has died again.
I'm using my Surface GO with a real keyboard and mouse.
If i had an interface, i'd use the monitor, too, but for now i'm dependent on the Surface's 10" screen.
I suspect the power supply - again - and this is a different brand.
Of course, it could be the motherboard or CPU.
Power supply is easy - i just have to manage to spare enough money for the gas for a roundtrip to Duluth - 70 miles total, three or four gallons with the minivan getting 20 - 25 MPG on the road - so i can take it to MicroCenter, get it tested, and replace it under my service contract if it's the problem.
Which money i haven't got right now, until March 25th.
And, given my luck, it's the board or the CPU.
Which i can't afford.
At least i can still work - somewhat - on the Surface

Well, sir - Bah, humbug and condolences! Good luck with sorting all that out. At least you have a service contract for it - yay!

Only for the power supply.
I built this one myself, so i'm the Service Department for the thing as a whole.

I know how you feel; broken laptop hinges were replaced with new OEM hinges, which broke all over again...
