My computer died
I'm at the library using theirs. I can't replace it until friday so I'm going to be going through withdrawal for a few days. At least I'll get caught up on everything I've been ignoring.

1. That totally sucks freddie57
Be sure not to raise any eyebrows at the library though or the FBI will swoop down upon you.

2. I had to fill out an application
to change my card I've never done that before. I wonder if I'm being monitered now. I'm going to see if they have any of will's books that should set the alarms off.

3. If you have one of these CDs
...and it was your hard drive that died, then you can boot off of the CD directly and still get work done:

6. Died?
What happened, is it fixable? It may just need a cheap part. Do you know any geeks?
