Silence aint Cheap

MB enjoys quietness and to this end has decided to do something about her very noisy PC which sounds like an aircraft engine. For some unknown reason it becomes even louder the longer it's been running, the noise is due to a cheap power supply which MB's local yokel supplier claimed was very quiet. Google to the rescue, there is actually an American website for quiet pc design, amazing, it's not just MB with a noise problem!
MB has decided on the Seasonic S12, it has a very low Db rating and even uses less power. This is one of the better power supplies that can be bought in Australia (according to MB's research anyway). $199 for a power supply is pretty expensive but after two years of being worn down by the present one MB would pay just about anything for peace. After placing an order online with a pc parts supplier (and paying) MB realised she hadn't checked on Ebay for one, sure enough some of the exact same model (new) for sale in Oz, sellers asking for $221. "Well shopped!" says MB as she contorts herself for a self applied pat on the back.
On a completely different tack; did you know that Mynah birds eat their dead relations? MB discovered a dead Mynah bird in her backyard this morning and is psyching herself up for disposal thereof. She is having evil thoughts about a "gift" for the howling dog next door. All day long other Mynah birds have been dropping in and feasting on their poor, dead relation.
Must go, the lawnmowing beckons....Mr MB, the gun lawn mower is over in London, dammit.
