The battle x-posted to FB
My computer has thrown down the gauntlet of battle.
The battle bagan this morning with computer opening up with sluggy and slow browser that taunted then froze the system entirely.
I countered with a hard restart after kinder offers of peace were refused.
Computer countered with a total loss of all profile settings upon reload. Further uping the ante by telling me I have been assigned a temporary profile.. enjoy the windows standard desktop you noob. It taugnted me as I conceeded round one, leaving for work.
Round two picked up this evening.
Tag team.
Pulling in expert advice I laughed sliently to my self. No arrogant computer will last long against the fix it knowledge of my husband!
AHHA! the computers tiny gremlim laughed as he countered my expert by informing us that for "some time now" no system backups have been stored. How did I like those apples? ...
I did not like them at all sir.
In a surprising move, expert locates my profile and a glimmer of hope surfaces...
Wait wait ---
Denied! The computer has stolen my identity and will not return all that is mine.
Poor copies are made to restore some basic amenities to my dignity, such as browser bookmarks and Ventrillo log in information.
I retreat.
Seeking escapism now, denial perhaps.. I decide to play a game. All goes well..
suddenly- my computer switched my keyboard to French?! My letter are strange, my keys do not respond as required. oh no.. computer will not let me be.
It demands I return form my mild break into the alterworld "pay attention to ME" it demands.
TInkering ensures and my framilar language is restored.
The match sits at 5 -4 in favor of computer. But this battle is far from over.
