Technical is just another word for "Doesn't work when it's supposed to"
Yeah, I'm a bit bitter.
I spent all of yesterday and part of this morning trying to set up the new hard drive... on another computer... and it doesn't work... and no one knows why. The BIOS doesn't even load most of the time now. The only theory I have left is that somehow we damaged the motherboard in such a way to damage the connections so that the BIOS cannot run most of the time; that the keyboard stops working at the same time and that the hard drive is disconnected. Except I didn't touch the damn thing.
And so that's the story behind the title of today's journal entry/my MSN name for the day.
Outside of that... well there is no outside of that. It's the only thing I've been working on for the past day since I posted last.
No Linux for me until that gets fixed - as much as I'd like to just switch completely to Linux, I'd like to keep windows around for a bit longer. Not to mention my harddrive is NTFS at the moment which Linux cant read. And I don't have a DVD player... which I need.
Ah well. Life goes on. I've got other shit to work on.
