Stupid computer.

So, I've just received all of my prizes for the recent compo and now it's back to regular school work and whatnot. I had a few ideas planned but unfortunately they won't be making any progress, so it's quite boring around here. I'm just anticipating winter break right now, since that'll give me quite some time to fool around. But right now it sucks.

An 8 month old computer of mine somehow killed itself recently, and thus I have to send it in for repair under warranty because I don't even have a clue about where the problem is at the moment, and yes, HP Tech Support is the best thing that I've ever come across in my life. It seriously is. I bought a recovery disk even though I doubted it would work, but those dudes needed proof before I could send the tower in, so after an hour of crap, they finally told me there must be something wrong with the motherboard. All that happened was the computer suddenly turned itself off when I left it sitting on CNN for half an hour. Talk about retarded. Apparently it wasn't even the hard drive that was causing the Blue Screen of Death because the thing said it was working properly, but in reality I heard strange sounds, so I just got pissed and there's no way I'm spending a single dollar to fix something like that. 12 days till I get it back, so it's rather frustrating.

I want a laptop.

That is all.

…I hate Vista.

Fux Vista, go pirate XP.

Why not pirate Vista, too.

Then burn lots of disks and give them to potentiall M$ customers!

Then use Ubuntu. Like me.

Or……

Buy a pinball machine and p1mp it out so it can run vista, then photograph it and send it to me with $20 attached! =D

Why not, you'd have a vista-capable pinball machine.

See, you don't even know whats coming out on other consoles, yet you say you want SSBB more.

Because I never play anything from Microsoft or PS3. Don't ask why.
