Look out, girl on board

[MrsChanga49]

I'm not exactly new to Austech, I have been surfing the site for some time, getting very handy info, but didn't want to jump into a "mancave". Now I think you should all know there are some gals who need to keep up with all the gadgets around the house, especially me as my boys have moved out and hubby still can't work the remote.

I have a mobile, a laptop, an IPod, a cheap version of an IPad, a really big Hitachi TV, I use Skype and I'm hoping for a new electronic toy for Mother's Day (no fluffy slippers for me thank you very much).

Great to see you and I was just going to see if there had been any further on that thread.

Welcome to Austech MrsChanga49.

There's a few females on the forums, and perhaps many more just lurking, as you did for some time.

My goodness, that's the industrial version - the one you have to kick-start!

Welcome Mrs Changa.

[weirdo]

what a sexist thread.
Never seen this much interest when another nerdy bloke signs up.

My guess is she simply was calling for a donate. Who donated?

Yeah, agreed.
Welcome MrsChanga49
Ignore the stirrers & consider it a rite of passage.
Many of us get subjected to it at some stage.
Feel free to ask or contribute on almost any subject and I think you will get largely positive responses.
Enjoy your stay.

I'm inclined to agree, and it was the main reason why I was a bit reluctant in starting a conversation going with you guys .... the 49 in my sign in is not my age, it is my birth year. So I am 63, a mother and a grandmother and the ash blonde is actually a lot of grey. So, while I appreciate the genuine assistance/answers I got from the majority of you guys, you other boys shouldn't assume because we girls sign up to a "boys" website, that we are actually only after cybersex. Anyway my overall experience with Austec has been very positive, and my problem was finally sorted, with the purchase of a HDD/DVD player/recorder. Thanks and bye bye !!

Pleased that you got your issue sorted, MrsChanga49.

Yes, the testosterone can be a bit overwhelming for some, when a member identifies themselves as female.

There's always tech help available if you need it here and I'm sure I speak on behalf of others as well in saying you're more than welcome to return at any time in the future.

Best of luck to you.
