I apologize for the strong language in the header there. I assure you it was provoked.
Last night my laptop crashed.
I haven't been around much today because I've been trying to get the blinking thing to reboot. There doesn't appear to be a physical problem with the hard drive, yet I can't even get it to restore to factory settings.
I have back-ups of all my files on my office PC (as well as on numerous cds and flashdrives), so I haven't lost any work, but I hate to lose to an inanimate object, don't you?
Honestly, if there was a mood indicator for 'Mildly annoyed', I'd bloomin' well select it, I can tell you.
Anyhoo, I've given up on the laptop (for now), as I have a long list of non-internetty things that need doing, but tomorrow is another day.
I look forward to catching up with everyone then.

I hope things work out, and you know what, sometimes it's a good thing to get off the net and do those non-internetty things that pile up! ;)
It's a bit like loosing a cranky pet.
It is at that :)
And congratulations on rooting out any f-words from your post. I'm sure the draft had them in droves :-)
If GDI is foul language . . . Jeez!
I had a computer crash in September. It was away for one month. The longest month of my life. All is good now.
I wish you and yours all the best.
It could be worse. At least it's not my only connection to the WWW.
I am so with you on this one. Yeah, I hate to lose to that sucker. Best of luck with getting some voodoo to work.
