Or a computer part, to be more precise...
My North Bridge Fan has just given up the ghost on me this morning, and not really having any great desire to let the north bridge chip melt all over my motherboard, i turned off said 'pooter as quickly as possible...

So now what I'd really like to know: anyone know anywhere in Brixton/Streatham that might be selling North Bridge fans on a sunday afternoon? I'm guessing it's a trip into the centre of town for me, but it's frustrating as there's work on that computer that i really need done for tomorrow, so any time saved getting the fan is a big bonus...

(btw, i'm writing this on my flatmate's computer, which, of course, doesn't have said work on it....)

A bad day for puter parts - but theres always pc world if yer desperate, best to look at the local phone book for small buisnesses - may be one open today - dunno what the score is up in London - god luck - may be wiser to excercise caution and hang on in till tommorow - pc world would fleece you - a nb fan would be only a few quid, £3 would sound right - but depends on the model


For now you should look at your motherboard manuel

There's a computer repair shop on Clapham Park Road, just past where it stops being Acre Lane. I've never used it so can't say anything about prices or stock, but it is a bit more local.
