-> 
-> EVERYTHING is new, and no one should expect you to be an expert

Yeah, yeah, that's what my marrage counciler kept telling me...

 
-> I just moved my #3 machine, and now it doesn't want to boot Windows
->  with any grace. The machine was my only other fido working 'puter, so
->  now I have to rely solely on my #1. Just today, #1 had three bad
cluster
->  writes that didn't match the journal entry, and directory
->  mismatches, and on, and on...

Yea, I have a grumpy Windows, that dislikes being awakened...OR put to
sleep.

When they said the Honda 350 was 'an old ladies bike, but it
will go on forever' I bought it.

When they said Windows ME might be alright for an old lady...
I bought it. I've had it for years now with zero problems.
I do kinda miss Win 3.11 booting to DOS and if you HAFTA
play with pictures zap to windows. I got pretty good at BASIC and
I will NEVER be any good in any of the languages they have kicking around
now...

Here the clouds begin to form (similar to an anathetic...(my spell checker
obviously does.'t work)


 it dutifully asked if I wanted to correct it all, and
->  because the system was stone idle when it went down, I'm up
->  again. Now, it'll be the Hayes 28.8 facsimile/modem to throw a hairy

Hey that reminds me of my early ham days...:-)


-> Thinking about it, #2 has been rather funky too. Time to dynamite the
->  mess, and start from scratch again. <L l/a maniac>
->
I've built ham transmitters...but I've done nothing more than
THOUGHT about it. Cripes! ONE solder joint and you ruin millions
of them thing-a-ma-jigs! And I know past and beyond all theological beliefs
that, should I try, having the voltage switch on the motherboard just
one teeny place off, the hard drive will belch smoke before shooting
like a rocket out of the back of my machine. My kick-ass machine 
of five years ago (One _GIGABYTE! 250MB of RAM! Holy cow!)
is now a pittiful sluggard the object of scorn by all computer maga
who insist on you getting a gig of RAM, over clock your P4 to
8GHz so you can properly play Halo III.
Grrr. Nuthin wrong with 'Dancing Demons' Those where the days...
(And My LaSalle ran great...)
 
->  -> I try to avoid any default Windows directory, as a default.

-> 
-> Not a problem. Dumb looks still being free...
->
If they wern't I'd be broke.

I'm an 8-bit kinda guy, and -cripes!- it's now a _64_ bit town...

Cheers! (Not NOW, stack 'em up for when you're REALLY ready.)
