:cry:
Well, I am sitting here typing on my laptop in my steaming hot office, instead of in my comfortably cool living room, because my server died on me yesterday. Maybe it was the fan that didn't blow as reliably as before, maybe it's the scorching heat, but after a few minutes of operation, my stone old Compaq Presario EZ2207, or better known as "Blue Toasteroven", has finally given up.
Now I am a complete idiot when it comes to hardware and soldering, but I will try to purchase a new fan and install it. Then again, if worse comes to worse, I can still call the pc doctor and have it fixed.
Oh well. I guess I can't complain after three years and NEVER a problem. I just wish I had my server back. It's so much nicer to roam through the house and be connected to the internet wirelessly. Just now I realize how important it is to have some kind of wireless connection... how did I even ever do it before? I feel like I am chained down to my desk, the chair feels uncomfortable and I don't even like to surf at all. What do you mean, I don't want to surf??? Oh my god. What is wrong with me??? 8)
A year ago, computer and desk for me where one inseparable item, I could have never imagined surfing the internet from my couch, or my balcony, or the bathroom (ahem :oops: ). Now it it almost gives me physical discomfort having to sit at my desk, chained to the wall with a network cable.
Sorry about my ranting. I needed to vent.
I'm going to be wireless again soon.
Maybe tomorrow.
Or the day after that.
I hope...
8O
Wish me luck!
