Computer woes...

While online this morning, my computer, which had been making strange buzzing noises for days, became the source of a vile stench. My parents concluded that the fan had failed and the power source was probably dead. The computer shop isn't open today, and I don't know when this will be fixed. So it could be a few days before I'm back on my computer Luckily we have two other functioning computers

I probably won't have ICQ access until it's fixed, but I will have AIM although my buddy lists on the other computers are limited.

It's very annoying that the computer was fried just as I resolved to finally start work on my site

Computers are the most annoying things in the world. Never had anything that bad happen to our computer thank goodness. Hope it never will too. I hope you get it fixed soon.

Sorry to hear that Ben.

Computers hate me. This is my third one in 2 years; the hard drive gone lalaland, the floppy drive gone to hell, etc.

Well, it's all been straightened out now

Apparently the fan got too clogged with dust and filth that it stopped working and overheated. The guy just cleaned out the fan

happy Mac :)

Yes, a Mac!
The ultimate machines in user-friendliness. And sooo simple to just clean them out yourself.

Plus, they smile at you when you boot up

Who the hell thinks Ben is a neat freak????? That just does not make any sense whatsoever. Those two words do not go in the same sentence together! Ben is one of the sloppiest, messiest ppl I have ever met.
