Mounting issues I've had to deal with XP and Server 2003 machines that had to be told to mount the disk and assign it a drive letter via Disk Management before they would talk to USB-connected drives, but not ones connected into the existing cables on the motherboard, unless--as you noted--they...

Interesting! Hi Tom, Well, that could explain it. Here's what it seems to do: - Start - motor runs like you'd expect. - Fill - short increment; not a full charge. Circulates briefly with barely enough to really do anything but cavitate. - Stops. The sound of crickets chirping fills the...

Enjoy it Sometimes the less you know, the better. I go through workaday machines like Kleenex, and only labor upon the ones worth keeping. If it's fun, enjoy it! You could do worse than to have something inexpensive that's entertaining and exposes you to Yet Another Intriguing Design, and...

Thanks, Kevin!! Thank you so much! Yes, that little spray arm (a bane to the washability of the earlier axial-pump models, and a gimmick at best) is there to focus on the silverware basket. Big oops on GE's part--the sides of the special Silver Shower basket are solid; it's only meshed at the...

Protein shakes through the nose That's why I stick to vodka martinis. Much smoother, especially with olive juice. ;-)

Sediment A deep, dark part of me wonders how much of that is spider-yibble.

Thank you, Robert! My day job is IT. The acronym, not the pronoun. I dream of writing trash romance novels someday, though. ;-)

After all they are boarder line of "Whisper Quiet Operat You got that right! LOL I too was amused by the operating light. Well, you can't have too many gee-gaws and doodads, right? I'm a little intimidated by reshaping the cams (if that's the deal), but am at least encouraged that the rest...

Oh, and... ...before you all start placing bets, the Silver Shower *is* hooked up on this model.

Top rack performance The little Power Shower is a hoot.  You can hear it swoosh-swooshing as it does its thing.  The scrubbing action in the top racks is phenomenal--even coated spatulas and turners come spectacularly clean, and there's lots of good places to secure plastics.  Everything light...

Stuff it like a lunchbox The Duo-Lift racks are phenomenal--least PITA factor of any top-loader I've had.   The key is to remember that tall items are deceptive, and to be cautious when closing the lid, lest you end up vacuuming what's left of your wine goblet stems out of the sump.   Put...

Hee-hee! Hey there!

Cord reel Look at that cord reel!  The D&M has one, but it just balls up the cord on one pulley.  Not GE!  It lays each portion into its own neat track.   The story on this was that it came from the estate of a gentleman's father.  The mother hated it, and if this timer mess-up is any...

The good news first Amazingly, she fired right up, with only some piddle from the drain valve (perpetually to be expected; our Westinghouse MW did the same thing).  I'll see what I can do with that. The real bummer is that, for the first two wash segments, the fill is short, and the motor...

Major cleaning Isn't she pretty?   Yes, she has the coveted Silver Shower, guaranteed to make you put back the open-sided silverware basket from another model.  But it's so delicious!   Start.  Start, Start.  Start here.  Dishes end up dry here.  You don't need to know the details; it's...

I was graciously given a heads-up as to this little gem on Craigslist, and I couldn't say no.  Because, you know.  Dishwasher.    However, she did not start out as a gem.  When I loaded her into the car, an absolute cornucopia of terror of cobwebs awaited.  Vacuuming them out was like...

One of these The one we had suffered from Superba Selectra syndrome--the control unit went brain-dead, and although it completed the cycle when asked to do so, I was never quite certain which one it was completing. After a while, I decided to switch it out for a unit that spent less time...

Mom? "It's so quiet, I--oh, damn it, it says 'F7.'  What does that mean?"   I like how she deftly avoids knocking the glass over with the phone cord.   If Mom's dishwasher was that bad on the phone, she must have had a top-loading portable stainless-steel impellered Mobile Maid.  That...

Lovely!!! Gorgeous finds, Kevin--congratulations!!

We also have 1959 dishwasher works good runs wonderful No poster comment about whether it scoured the last casserole clean and left the glasses gleaming. ;-)
