Yikes!

Time really flies when you're not blogging! Apologies to anyone who has been checking this blog only to find NADA. Not much has been going on, actually.

Another trip to Best Buy is in order. The laptop that I let my son borrow needed a new hard drive. I just picked it up on Friday and was informed that they "can't find" any of the system recovery disks for that models - so "good luck with that". Well, I'm not a complete computer idiot, and I knew I had the disks, so I set about restoring it myself rather that causing a scene at that time.

The stupid operating system won't even restore. It gets almost done and throws up a fatal error that there is something wrong with recently installed hardware. Hmmmm.....Stupid bastards. I'm taking it back today - with the disks - for my overdue scene. How fucking stupid is it to NOT have the install and recovery disks for a models that is still under warranty???? I know...don't even say it...it's Best Buy. In actuality, it is the manufacturer that it was sent to for repair who didn't have the disks - which makes it even more ridiculous. The pimply children in the "service center" at Best Buy have VERY limited skills - and need cheat sheets bound, tabbed, and color-coded to accomplish the basic tasks they perform.
