    computer-hating rant..

    I am sorry but I HAVE to vent right now, and this is the only place I can do it. Have you ever wanted to HURL your computer out the window?? I DO right now!!! I can NOT get to Photobucket. Apparently my computer is stating the photobucket.com no longer exists. I am sure that this is false, but this complete hunka junk is saying so.
    Sorry, If I do not vent, this computer is going to be hurled out into the snow and I will have a very irate hubby when he comes home. But ARRGH am I heated right now! I hope that you at least got a chuckle at my expense.

    Re: computer-hating rant..

    I found out 2 days ago that mine is outdated and can't be used for my school work. It is 3 yrs old. I have to try and update it somehow by monday to do assignments if I want to continue this class. I found out this class does ALL work on the computer!! I can't even turn in my homework without it.

    I gotta ask what is it you don't have that they are telling you you have to use? 3 years old, despite what people tell you, is NOT outdated.

    Did you try restarting it? Or at least restarting your web browser?

    My instructor is using a program called ednet thru the college. It requires windows2007, I have windows2003. Mine will not allow me access to the program, I believe to update it will cost about 3 hundred. I could use the lab computers, but I work sometimes till 1:30 am, I have to sleep and by the time I get rolling it is time for class. I can do assignments at night, but days will be almost impossible. I have been online with tech support as much as 2 hrs in the last 3 days.Hoping to get it resolved over the weekend.

    Lately I've been feeling the same at work. We upgraded to '07 and Vista . . . ugh. So many problems - not enough time for the IT gurus to fix all the problems, especially with Outlook.

    Re: computer-hating rant..

    I was up most of the night re-installing every program on my sisters laptop after I did a complete factory default reset of it. She had it so full of trojans I should have sent a copy of the hard drive to Guinness.

    Buuuuut I'm one of those odd people who enjoy messing around with computers, taking them apart, upgrading them, repairing software, so I actually found it a little fun. hehe. Go ahead and hate me now.
