Ilka,
I have a soldering iron, and for the low price of one beer I will add wire as
necessary to a computer for you.
Watch out for cheap labor, anyone offering to do the job for less than one beer
probably has no pride in their workmanship, and would offer no warranty, my work
is fully guaranteed- your beer back if you're not fully satisfied.
