‘puter crash and a new friend

July 6, 2006 · Posted in the meta 

ugh…my machine went down hard last week.  Problem turned out to be a bad stick of RAM and is fixed now, so I should get stuff back up.  Still recovering because some system stuff was upgraded during the bad memory time and now some things are hosed.  In the meantime I got me a new friend, a MacBook.

    FLO! Glad to see you’re not too bummed about Germany falling to Italy! Wish I could have joined Rick on his World Cup watching adventures, but c’est la vie!

    As to France and Zidane, I’m with you – what a story that would be!

    re: your world cup predictions … never underestimate the Italian defense. Cannavaro, Buffon, Zambrotta rulez …

    3. I got a MacBook too. I like it although it’s a little hot

    4. Want to catch up with you and your world cup stories around a pitcher of beer.

    cheers

    Marino

    Fed up with beer ruined by warm hands? Then use BEER TONGS brand beer tongs, for a more satisfactory beer drinking experience (ad parody)
