30 minutes - it just didn't seem possible - 30 minutes! What the heck!
Tea at hand, ready to write, fire up the laptop, and here we go! Latest blog idea fresh in my mind (and it was going to be a good one as well!) and then the blue screen and message
Applying Updates - Please wait
0% configured
Please do not turn off your computer
30 minutes - what the heck! It somehow seems irrational to be dependent on technology which is constantly in need of updates. And just as soon as the updates are done, some pimple faced, sallow-cheeked geek boy (sorry and apologies to you pimple faced, sallow-cheeked geek girls out there as well) sitting in a dark dimly lit basement dungeo- (computer reboots, applying updates, restarts).
WHAT THE HECK! GUESS IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU ARE DOING! WHEN THE COMPUTER IS READY TO REBOOT, REBOOT IT IS! (AND NOW I'M BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND WHY THEY NAMED THE COMPANY 'MICROSOFT' - MACROSOFT WOULD HAVE PROMOTED WAY TOO MANY PUNS!
Here's an idea - let's build another internet with a dedicated super secure operating system for each device and leave the other ARPANET inspired BLACK HOLE INTERNET to the hackers, perves, gamblers, and spammers as their own little playground.
(And no - I won't use a Mac or an Ubuntu box!)
Now - where's my fishing pole!
