Computers, How I Hate Them!
Computers were supposed to be a great thing, easing our days by putting the world at our finger tips , making work far more productive, causing the world to live in harmony and birds to sing (can you hear the harp playing in the background?)….
NOT! I spent the better part of the night locked in a cage match, fighting a losing battle with mine. Micro Soft really needs to come up with a screen that taunts the user, laughing hysterically at our pitiful attempts to sort out the disasters that their programming can create.
I added a spybot killer, a registry cleaner and an anti- virus program this week. They hate each other and refuse to work in the same office space. I had to let the first registry cleaner go, it refused to work and kept lobbying for more wages….
You know there is a problem when closing the Internet out and returning to the desktop takes fifteen minutes or more.
I nearly resorted to a new and drastic program, one that involved injecting lead into the hard drive at high velocity.
