Well hello! I don’t know if I have paointed out enough times the computer problems I have had the past few weeks. I picked up a virus on my laptop that ended up wiping out most of my OS. I have been using my laptop for most everything in running my business for the past couple of years.
I spent way too much time working on it until I was able to migrate much of my data to my older desktop and use that. Now the desktop is a decent computer, same OS and almost as fast s it was ok, just a pain in the rear end. I used it and it worked fine for while until I was able to get the factory discs to restore the laptop.
It was only then I found my hard drive was messed up by this same virus. Ok this is not just a sob story, I have everything sorted out now and I am ok with everything. I just had a funny thought that inspired this post.
Through all of this, I felt like I was cheating on my laptop with my desktop. I just hope that, now the laptop is back, the desktop won’t be too pissed. The desktop knew with wouldn’t last. It was only a matter of time. It should be happy I am using it as a server to spool printing and run the wireless network.
Yet, if I ever find the guy who wrote that virus I will personally carve a chuck out of him for every byte of info that I lost, and another chunk for every hour I spent working on it, and yet another chunk for the money I spent fixing it. Then maybe another for the money I lost while the computer was down. I would go to court and my defense would be, “But he wrote a virus that I got and it wiped out my system.” Judge frowns at pile of bloody chunks. “Case Dismissed, Justifiable Homicde.”
It is funny to put computers in the place of people in a soap opera. I am just glad it is easier to juggle computers and data than people. I am continuously intrigued with the people douchebags who cheat on their spouses and how they can live 2 lives like that. I couldn’t. I don’t want to.
I will stick to jealous computers.
What you you guys think?
