Rage!!

crap software + crap hardware + PMS = RAGE!!!!

I am too pissed off at the world in general to deal with this. Or write a meaningful post even. My stupid iBook (peice of iShit that it is) has decided to go on strike or something and refuses to boot. After much swearing, fsck'ing, and searching for ideas, my only option at this point is to pray I can salvage some of the data on the hard disk and reimage the damned thing. How lovely. My linux box work has crashed, the network is being burpy, and I am cranky and achy and tired, but I don't get to go home early becasue they have decided to move our proposed launch date up a week. Yes, they are moving a launch UP. WTF? No one moves dates up. That's just insane.

I want to go home and finish trying to install freeBSD on the new server. But this is going to difficult, as the install directions are all saved on the useless POiS iBook. Hopefully I need no more data than what I manage to print out at work. blegh.

If you need any help with FreeBSD, I've been a Free/NetBSD advocate for quite a while and know them quite well.

I may take you up in that...especially if the iBook remains dead for much longer.

BTW - before it's untimely death, I managed to burn a CD of the pictures you took for me. I still need to get the actual film developed (I know...), but some of the digital shots came out pretty well.

Give the rolls to E on Friday (I won't be able to make it, need to be home to get K back from her visit with Mom) and I'll get them developed for you :)
