HATING COMPUTERS

This is sort of like biting the hand that feeds you, but hey, I hate switching computers. It's a pain. You have to go find all those old program disks to reload stuff, and re-enter all your personalized user settings. Passwords, URLs, the nightmare list goes on and on.

But I guess it's better than getting the old "blue screen" or some error message like "can't find registry."

Last time one of my computers bit the dust, it at least had the common decency to give me a warning by making funny clicking noises. In case you don't know, that means your hard drive's fixin' to crash. So back up those precious files and do a voodoo chant or rain dance, and hope your hard drive stays cognizant long enough for you to get another computer set up.

The worst is having all your stuff locked inside some computer that is dead as a dirt clump. All you can do is whimper and gnash your teeth and kick your expensive doorstop.

I thought computers were supposed to make life easier...
