Ok, I know lots of you guys are tech support people...

Imagine that you are getting calls, but your computer will only work half the time.  When it does work, the only tech info you have at your command is from 2007-- none of the new updates from 2008, or newer, are available for you.  That, in essence, is what I am dealing with today...
 
hahahaha!

I need to boot something!!!

Our server has a 4g hard drive and a 12g hard drive; they are both full, and can't take anymore updates-- so i have out of date parts prices and all....
 
I have to turn your attention to a horrible tragedy that has been documented in terrifying pictures!

WARING: The following images are not for the faint-hearted!


Are you really sure you want to see this?

OK, then go ahead...

...dude, just go buy another ata hard drive.  They're cheap as balls.

I'm not buying anything... the boss has been gonna buy something for 3 months... we are still waiting.  so, i sit. I twiddle my thumbs.  i curse under my breath.  I drink at nite.

@ per, nice vid!
 
Let the system crash into an unrecoverable state and then the boss will have to part with some cash. And if your HDD is full, can you not do a bit of housekeeping and dump a load of stuff to a DVD or something?
 
The server doesn't have a cd/dvd burner.  this thing has a tape reader!  ... tho, maybe I could find a tape to record onto...

and, yeah, that is what i'm hoping for... on my day off, i want this thing to fall apart! 

As most of you know, i'm not mr computer guy... and I'm the only one here that knows any computer stuff-- one of the guys can't load pictures off his camera onto ebay!  funny, huh?
 
Foro's link made me think. Should I get myself a Myspace page? I mean, I hate Myspace. I think it's one of the most cluttered websites on the entire intarnetz, and most people use it to boost their ego (Hi. I'm someone. On the Web.). But then, a bunch of people have already asked me if I have such a page. I've got an unused profile that I once made to download songs from artist's pages. What do you think?

Hi back!

@ Perun... that's a toughy.  If you were really gonna 'keep up' with friends and such, maybe its worth it.  I have a buddy that found an old girlfriend on the web cause of his page-- i don't know if that is bad or good  :S

Don't...

the SPAM factor in itself is reason enough to just say NO...

The clutter is another...

Wanna keep in touch with old friends, I think FaceBook is a better way to go about it...
