Oooo, I could just scream...  My computer is not recognizing my ipod.  Again!  Last night it wasn't recognizing something Randy was trying to plug into the USB port too...  And he tried my ipod, and it...it, replace the device."  REPLACE THE DEVICE.  As if it could never ever be the fault of the almighty WINDOWS.  ARRGH!  Vista SUCKS, Bill.  Fix it! I'm so glad my computer is almost paid off...

As you create new icons on your Windows desktop, they are created in vertical columns. If you select a group of icons by clicking on one and shift-clicking on another, the selection is made in horizontal rows. W. T. F.?

That is all.

Wheh, what a week!  I worked like crazy to finish 2 three-page summaries of two different projects I've been working on recently.  Yesterday I was at work from 9 am to 4 am....yes, that's 19 hours.  But...of years.  So, when I think to myself, what happened when I looked at this or that, one or two years ago, I can find my result in  my notebook and find my data on my computer without too much trouble

- Дорогой юзер, ты не хочешь таки накатить сп3 на свою винду? - Ну, ладно, дафай.. И фсё-ё... 3 часа траха с последующим откатом взад. Как в том анекдоте про волка, "а я-то и читать не умею?!" (с) ...на "Applying computer settings"? Самое обидное, что небыло никаких разры,  тьфу, никаких жалоб в евентах, красиво грузилась сейф мода с сетью, вобщем все как-бы пучком, а вот внутри пучка - жопа. Ж

One of the most ridiculous BSOD reasons. I know drivers...I know IRQs...but what the hell does this mean? Yesterday, at Fry's, I bought a USB 2-to-2 switch. I rebooted my laptop this morning, and something... but the only OEM option I have is either to wipe out the disk completely, losing everything, or run "repair". To run a reinstall of Vista would mean that I have to go drop $300+ on x64 Ultimate

IE 7 was Acting bizarrely, could not Access Internet. Ran IE Reset Also ran CCLeaner to clean Out the registry Things are better now However there is much work To restore settings. Two BSODs BUGCODE_USB_DRIVER...again So far, so good, must not do Three-fingered salute Fujitsu-Siemens Seems to works well in haiku Line one or line three (That last one was a bonus I thought of while selecting the user pic)

Stupid pop-up windows and focus stealing. I'm printing something to my duplex printer ( HP 6540dt , which I'm very happy with, as it has 2 hot ports, plus the duplex ability), and unfortunately I didn't...the lack of response, then unlock the keyboard. ("Lock" and "unlock" are old IBM 3270 terminal terms. Go ask your programmer friend with mainframe experience, and why things were better before GUIs.

Installed SP1 So far so good, nothing wrong But changes may come

I never, ever thought I'd say this, but here goes: I'm really starting to fall for Apple. For years I've tirelessly bitched about the Cult of Jobs - and I'll still defend my complaints about the Apple... and I'm looking forward to it. The design, the ease of use, the whole OS - Apple's honestly superior in every way, it seems. So I'll be damned, 'cause I really didn't think this day would ever arrive
