This past Sunday, I witnessed the heretofore mythical "blue screen of death" along with the words "fatal system error." After letting out a scream of frustration, I reflected that my week was starting out very badly. So I called my Dad (the American one) to complain. "Cheer up, Baby," he said. "Things could be a lot worse." Prophetic words indeed.
See you when my system is back up--or I'm in possession of a new one. (I'm at the library right now.) In the meantime, I'll be praying for the victims of Virginia Tech and counting my blessings.
Hang in there, dear hostess! I had two home computers go toes-up last week myself. Including my laptop, three months after the extended warranty expired. :-(

Toes? Oh... :-)
(Still posting from the library. Delivery of system NLT 7 May....AARRRRGGHH!)

Mine don't even blue-screen me--if they'd get that far, I might be able to do some diagnostics. They're just dead. If only lightnin' fried mobos were tasty they'd be useful.
Fortunately I have more than two computers... :-)
