Does anyone else ever feel this way? The PC technology world spins on ever faster and faster, always threatening to spin out of control and lose me in the wake of it’s path forever. Ok, maybe that’s a bid dramatic, but that’s the way that I feel sometimes. I know it’s probably not quite accurate, but maybe you can feel my pain.
This week it’s a new processor on the marketplace, next week it’s the talk of yet another modification to the already intimidating M$ operating system empire. Ever hear of ‘the empire strikes back’? Yeah? Well, I wish they would quit! It’s hard enough to keep up with the hardware side of things, much less keeping up with the software updates. I mean, what was wrong with Windows 98? For all intents and purposes, it can still hold it’s own today against the ‘modern’ Windows versions, not to mention faster loading time. OK, OK, so the BSOD (blue screen of death) did become my invisible friend, just waiting to pop up at the most unopportune times (like when I had a load of stuff open and going on my desktop - all unsaved!!!).
OK, enough of my rant for today. There are just some days that I wish the world would stop for a bit, and I could catch up.
