Keep an eye out until you see a good deal - no need to do it right now presumably. So if a good deal comes up, buy it.

Oh and you'll find that likely there's no difference to the way you press the keys regardless of whether caps lock is on or not Thumbs Up.

So how does having caps on help, they are still all in the wrong place but just bigger?

Caps lock is in the same place though? Fail to see the problem there.


As for the buy in winter shit, it is just that, utter shit.

People think I will buy in the winter because people need money for Christmas blah blah....Sellers think, I will sell it in winter for what it would go for basically in summer because are always looking to buy in the winter on the myth that it is cheaper.

How long you been without a bike? A little while longer won't be too hard if you take a gamble. If it doesn't pay off you'd only pay the same you would now.

Buy a sports bike, maybe many sold for fear of death and wet, and for said warriors to put towards an over priced ewan muk fucker adventure bike.

If that is the problem and you prefer caps lock then just use this website (link here). All you do is copy your typing paste it into there and then convert it. Simple method and it stops "the shouting".

Anyway back to topic what are finances like, can you afford to run a bike Question

* If the answer is yes and you will use it in the new year then get it and ride it.

* If the answer is no wait till the new year or Christmas and get one then if your finances change.

I believe his issue is that he leaves caps lock on so he can have numbers rather than characters as standard.

You can buy a new QWERTY keyboard on eBay for most laptops for about a tenner - usually take 15 mins to change one too.

Edit: I should read the rest of the posts first. As said, just buy a new keyboard man!

Buy one now to not miss out on riding, and another in winter!

You can always earn more money, but you cant buy back the time you went without a bike!
