Bleh.

Amazon.com has crazy-cheap GameCube Memory Card 251s, but the cost of shipping them here makes them a bit less of a bargain (it's a third-party seller, and they'll actually ship here sometimes). Amazon.ca has the same card, for about three or four times as much as well.

Considering sending it to my dad, if the US shipping is cheap enough. Otherwise, not sure what to do.

In other news, does anyone have a spare Windows XP CD-ROM? I'd really like to get some stuff off our old drive before it finally sails off into the sunset, but we need that to get the thing to boot up first. We've heard that it's available online, but then there are the virus concerns that come with that...

Finally, there was something I wanted to post here, and for the life of me, I cannot remember what it is. Don't you just hate that?

A friend of mine is good at scaring up online resources and/or data-only resources that won't leave one virus-riddled. I'll try to poke him and see if he has anything for XP --

No problem X3

http://www.sysresccd.org is an alternative if you can put up with a linux distro. (ntfs support is decent these days)

[lbd-nytetrayn.livejournal.com]

I think the Linux thing might be a barrier to this one. Thanks, nonetheless!

Amazon.ca didnt had those GC memory cards?

[lbd-nytetrayn.livejournal.com]

They do, but for about three or four times the price. And if I remember right, the shipping wasn't much of a bargain, either-- I'd still come out cheaper getting it from the U.S.

Can always ship it to me. I don't mind shippin' it back up to y'all.

[lbd-nytetrayn.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I may just do that... or perhaps wait and gather it from you at Otakon, if you would rather.
