Google, you earned the world a short respite from the wrath

Mar 20, 2009 13:00

Everyone should go and look at google now.

Firstly, because tomorrow, it will be gone. (They've changed the logo for the first day of Spring. It made me gleeful.)

Secondly. At some point in the next half hour my wrath will have risen to levels that will allow it to smite the whole goddamned world. So y'know, that would include google. And you ( Read more... )

THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR!!!!!

Did they not give you the discs at the time? I wasn't even offered the option for Hal just over a year ago. No longer even sure if they do those down grade discs. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2287685,00.asp

Does it have to be XP? Vista is kinda stable now.

Please don't smite me.... yesterday was a good day for me.....

HEEEE! I KNOW!!!

Nope, there were no discs at the time. And I'm assuming they still do given that I was sold Vista Business so that I could downgrade. After this morning, I would probably have stuck with Vista, except, the machines can't actually run Vista. Well, they can, but Vista is all they'll run - they've 1GB RAM. Enough to run Vista and nothing else...

*IS BITTER*

[Glad yesterday was good tho. *g*]

Vista does need the whole 2Gb to be honest. Hal struggles (vista business).

Baws. Why 5 laptops if you don't mind me asking?

County laptops. We're getting another 5 when the grant actually comes through. (5 was all we could afford with the credit limit, and we needed them for tomorrow.)

PC World are on my shit list at the moment.

Ah right.
Again baws. PC World aren't my friends either, the edjits that work there.

Well 3 suggestions.
Try an XP recovery disc and risk the computer.
Try a Linux flavour?
Suffer vista and hope for a future memory upgrade.

There was a certain blondness on my part. The system recovery disc was actually XP. The fact that I hadn't even unsealed the discs to be able to see what was printed on them didn't help...
