This just seems to be one of those weeks where you don’t get a chance to stop. Monday evening’s football wasn’t particularly satisfying, mostly because the play was mostly disjointed, with little fluidity. Met up with some friends to discuss plans for this summer. This summer is beginning to look like it’ll be really cool. Wednesday’s snooker was somewhat better than Monday’s football, as I managed to beat Robin by 3-0 frames.
A significant proportion of the week was spent just fixing the computers of friends. Most, if not all, of the problems were due to the fact that most computers are still not usable by non-technical people. They’ll work for a while, but if anything goes wrong, it takes a technical person to sort it out. Although in fairness, one of the computers was a linux box, the problem being that the hardware was failing and causing kernel panics which most people wouldn’t be able to resolve. The other problems were compounded by things such as AOL, Windows (and Winmodems) and people selling on computers without system discs! (Why?!)
Maybe I should advise everyone to buy Apple Macs and be done with it?
