PC HATRED!!!

Today it took exactly FORTY minutes to get my IBM T42 laptop up and running. From the start at 9:05, it was extrememly sluggish. I composed two brief emails by 9:28, when it automatically shut off. A Blue Screen of Death momentarily appeared. White text filled the screen, starting with "Windows has detected a problem with your computer..."

When the machine finished rebooting at 9:44, a popup icon appeared above the system tray. "Windows has finished installing an important update to protect your security. An automatic restart was required to complete this update."

Microsoft, PEOPLE DON'T FUCKING LIKE THIS! STOP!

But at least my security is protected by the Microsoft servers that run my personal computer. It's not like I have anything else to do today.
