BOFH: The craptop • The Register

“You should go to Vista.”

“So you like Vista?”

“Not really, no. I run a Vista simulator.”

“Virtual Server?” the Boss asks.

“Nah, I just turned on all the flashy crap in XP, changed the background image, took some memory out of my box and clocked down the CPU. Then broke Media player. Works like a charm.”

Vista versus The Gutsy Gibbon – Ubuntu 7.10 – Mixed Signals – Rupert Goodwins's Blog at ZDNet.co.uk Community

Running Vista is like being in a candy store that only sells black liquorice (I _hate_ black liquorice) at exorbitant prices. Oh, and you’re only allowed to eat the candy in the store. Plus each individual piece is really small and is wrapped in seven layers of cellophane, and the store won’t let you throw the wrappers away. You have to take them with you and throw them away at home. Plus they set off a grenade in the chocolate store across the street in the middle of the night and mugged the proprietors of the penny candy stand. Oh, and Microsoft are the ones behind the urban legend that red M&Ms cause cancer. That’s the kind of candy store Vista is.

A Moment of Zen

“Ask yourself frequently, ‘Am I having fun?’

The answer doesn’t always need to be yes.

But if it’s always no, it’s time for a new project or a new career.”

Quote of the day!

Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a

well-preserved body, But rather to skid in sideways,totally

worn out, shouting “…holy shit…what a ride!”
