My computer crashed and died today from suspected virus attack, and the entire process of reviving it was quite a rigmarole - backup files, format the disk drive, install the OS and then re-install every single driver and software it needs. I should really invest in ghosting technology to save myself the hassle of doing all these whenever my computer loses steam on me or becomes corrupted as it perchance does these days. By the way, my off-clearing period has begun early and I have lots of free time languishing in my hands. That is why I can afford to waste half a day on this computer and do unconstructive things like take photos of the screen!

About Me
