• My Fujitsu Lifebook laptop suddenly decided i’d be working her too hard, and decided to take a vacation. She refused to boot up on me at 3pm yesterday. Appears the motherboard is faulty and the guys had to keep it overnight, despite the fact that I mentioned I’d needed it for ‘mission critical’ project work (eg. blogging 3-4 times a day). They didn’t bite.

Oh well.

• My backup machine, the AMD desktop hard disk is on perpetual seek. The orange hard disk seek light flashes more often than the strobes at a Castro disco on YMCA night. Oh well, part 2. Well, it’s an incentive to finally load GIMP and the google toolbar on this machine I guess.
