| -->You are now talking on #schooltool | 13:56 | |
| SteveA | hi | 13:56 |
|---|---|---|
| mgedmin | hi | 13:56 |
| SteveA | http://store.yahoo.com/yhst-4637967662032/02k6646.html | 13:56 |
| SteveA | that link doesn't work | 13:56 |
| -->alga (~alga@office.pov.lt) has joined #SchoolTool | 13:57 | |
| SteveA | I'm quoting links from the email albert sent | 13:57 |
| SteveA | http://store.yahoo.com/yhst-4637967662032/02k6646.html | 13:57 |
| SteveA | that link doesn't work | 13:57 |
| SteveA | I guess it was session based | 13:57 |
| SteveA | they should use REST | 13:57 |
| alga | SteveA: I just pasted the wiki page | 13:57 |
| SteveA | ok. so I want to get Jim to order the batteries today | 13:57 |
| alga | Marius should have sent you a separate email re. batteries | 13:57 |
| mgedmin | I did | 13:57 |
| SteveA | oh, ok, I thought that the one latest email was the last word on it | 13:58 |
| SteveA | what I was hoping for was a prioritised list of retailers | 13:58 |
| SteveA | so that I don't have to do any searching myself, and just go through the list | 13:58 |
| alga | Basically, we don't care about retailers | 13:58 |
| SteveA | and ask the first "do you have a FOOBARbattery" | 13:58 |
| SteveA | and if they do not, I ask the second etc. | 13:58 |
| mgedmin | the titaniumsomething site had online ordering | 13:58 |
| alga | if that one doesn't work out, just froogle for those batteries | 13:59 |
| mgedmin | I assumed Albert had chosen it as the best retailer | 13:59 |
| alga | that one just had both batteries at an acceptable price | 14:00 |
| SteveA | so, I'll try the titannotebook.com one | 14:00 |
| alga | yes, please | 14:00 |
| SteveA | but, I don't want to froogle for them. that's your job. | 14:00 |
| alga | but all shops seem alike to me | 14:01 |
| SteveA | so, I'll tell you if titan doesn't have them | 14:01 |
| alga | ok | 14:01 |
| alga | I'll look for an alternative in the meantime | 14:01 |
| SteveA | yes, but it is your responsibility to choose the shop. my job is to try to buy the stuff. | 14:01 |
| mgedmin | (just a thought: perhaps people who live there know of a good local place to get these things -- although laptop batteries are not exactly a popular commodity I guess) | 14:02 |
| SteveA | Are the batteries made by IBM? | 14:04 |
| mgedmin | I got the impression that the batteries offered by titaniumnotebook.com are made by a third party, but are compatible | 14:04 |
| SteveA | http://titannotebook.com/product/battery/ibm/ibm_tp_t20.asp | 14:07 |
| SteveA | so that one? | 14:07 |
| mgedmin | that was the link I sent you, yes | 14:08 |
| SteveA | ok | 14:08 |
| SteveA | that's a good price | 14:08 |
| SteveA | http://titannotebook.com/product/dcbattery/nb-1l_black.asp | 14:08 |
| SteveA | that also | 14:08 |
| SteveA | is the other battery on titannotebok? | 14:09 |
| SteveA | the easiest thing is if I can order all of the stuff from titannotebook. is that possible? | 14:09 |
| mgedmin | do you mean http://titannotebook.com/product/battery/ibm/ibm_tp_x.asp by "the other battery"? | 14:10 |
| SteveA | http://titannotebook.com/product/battery/ibm/ibm_tp_x.asp | 14:10 |
| SteveA | right | 14:10 |
| SteveA | ok, so are you both happy if I get jim to order those three things? | 14:10 |
| SteveA | the flash memory etc. can come from a retailer | 14:11 |
| mgedmin | I'm happy | 14:12 |
| alga | yes | 14:12 |
| SteveA | ok, we'll do that | 14:12 |
| alga | :) | 14:12 |
| mgedmin | thanks | 14:13 |
| SteveA | BM ThinkPad X20 Series Li-ion Battery | 14:13 |
| SteveA | #TTN-BATIBTPX $91.00 USD | 14:13 |
| SteveA | Digital Camera Li-ion Battery for Cannon NB-1L/1LH (black) | 14:13 |
| SteveA | #TTN-BDCCNS3004 $15.00 USD | 14:13 |
| SteveA | IBM Thinkpad T/T20 Series Li-ion Battery | 14:13 |
| SteveA | #TTN-BATIBT20 | 14:13 |
| SteveA | $63.00 USD | 14:13 |
| SteveA | That will be the order | 14:13 |
| SteveA | last chance to change your minds! ;-) | 14:14 |
| alga | [I Agree] | 14:14 |
| SteveA | was it one of each you wanted | 14:14 |
| SteveA | ? | 14:14 |
| alga | yes | 14:14 |
| mgedmin | yes | 14:14 |
| SteveA | ok | 14:14 |
| SteveA | the only question left is whether they have the goods in stock | 14:15 |
| alga | probably we want the order cancelled if they don't :) | 14:16 |
| SteveA | ok | 14:18 |
| SteveA | oddly, they use paypal as a payment agent | 14:18 |
| SteveA | ok, there's a problem | 14:32 |
| SteveA | the ordering page has no way to specify shipping options | 14:32 |
| SteveA | so it is not possible to order overnight shipping | 14:32 |
| SteveA | I'll need to phone them when they are open, in several hours | 14:32 |
| mgedmin | not very nice of them | 14:44 |
| mgedmin | I noticed they have three shipping options: UPS ground, UPS air and UPS 2nd day air | 14:45 |
| SteveA | yes | 14:55 |
| SteveA | no way to choose | 14:56 |
| SteveA | I'll phone | 14:56 |
| SteveA | what debian package do I use to make USB modules get loaded on plugging them in? | 15:00 |
| SteveA | hotplug | 15:02 |
| SteveA | got it | 15:02 |
