    You're using a computer to rant about computers.

    Does that qualify as ironic?

    Of course it does, but where else am I going to rant, so that ya'll know that I'm ranting, eh?

    If you switched from DOS 3.0, and went with Windows 95, you wouldn't have these problems.


    I spent an hour and a half earlier getting my machine to successfully fax a one page letter; I spent an equal amount of time successfully cursing both the computer and the all-in-one printer/scanner/fax machine.

    One step away from Kinko's when everything fell into place.

    Ugh.

    This POS I use at work makes me want to pull the rest of of my hair out.

    Whoever used it before me must have been surfing every **** site in the web. I ran a scan on it yesterday and it has over 130 viruses. POS locks up about every other page.

    100% positive. I'm never wrong about people or computers. If I say someone is a putz, rest assured they are and if I say XP sucks, rest assured it does too.
