Infernal machine from Hell!!
May. 31st, 2006 08:36 amAnd for once I'm not talking about my demon chariot of a car.
My computer almost gave me a heart attack yesterday. I was helping a friend of mine finish a project for uni in time for the deadline (she was having issues getting her laptop to run the program needed). I was feeling all superhero like as I swooped down with my car to pick her up in a flash of red. Java may have been something I haven't used in two/three years but I can debug most things I have a passing knowledge of. From a non-working program to something that compiles and actually shows up took me 2 and a half hours the day before.
But yesterday I was called on to help again and I swooped down and fetched my friend. I then went to set up the computer.
( 37ish ruddy tries!!! )
Need a new computer. And for those in the know I was so dejected by this that I refused a cup of tea when it was offered me.
