Sometimes I Wonder...
May 10, 2004
…if computers really save time. I do not want to log the time I have spent in the last week dealing with:
- Spam (go figure)
- Viruses
- Adware and spyware
- Spam postings to this blog
- A hardware problem
- Backups and other administravia…
Though I have to say I love wireless networking. I now have 3 machines running on a small wireless network at home, and the setup has been very easy. Of course, once one of the existing machines was wired, it promptly got a virus. Then I was a good boy, and began downloading all of the Windows upgrades in preparation for adding a firewall. Halfway into the upgrade, the hard drive failed.
As I write this, I look over my shoulder at another (older) machine I am trying to reclaim only to see the following error message:
Operating System Not Found.
I don’t think that is a good thing.
