It won't connect to my hard drive anymore, so you won't see me around for a few days/weeks. I'm on a campus computer as of now, so I won't be able to do anything with regard to BYOND, so I'll see you all when my laptop gets fixed or replaced.

This is probably silly to say, but you could place it on a usb drive... but okay, don't get into trouble.

Turns out, it was just my hard drive that failed. In the middle of the night, it decided to break for no reason. I lost a few months worth of data, but it's not all that big a deal. Ha... ha...
Anyways, since it was just my hard drive, and I had a warranty, they just gave me a new hard drive and my laptop is back in working order. I should be back to work soon enough (probably tomorrow)

awww, that sucks, if mine were to crash i would be DOOMED

Right, so... Last week could quite possibly have been the worst week of my life, so excuse me if I'm not on for a while.

It started out when my car got wrecked. Lost traction around a curve and hit the curb. My axle got bent, but there's not any major damage. I'll have it back by the 17th. You'd think that would mean I'd have more time to moderate, but 2 days after I wrecked my car, my hard drive failed, which I already told you. That was all well and good, I got my laptop back 2 days later. It worked perfectly fine for a day, then I experienced my first blue screen (3 times). I took it back to the store and they said they'd send it off to see if it could be fixed. Bureaucratic nonsense aside, I'll have a new laptop with Windows 7 (ugh) in a week or so after they tell me that they can't fix my laptop (like always). Then I had to go visit the a doctor because I've got some tumor-esque lump on my throat. The doctor (who had a heavy Asian accent that was hard to understand) said that I could have 1 of 3 things, but I had to go have a CT scan done to see if it was any of them, then go back to him with the results so he could have me sent off to do another test, the return to him with those results, then (maybe) they can get started with a procedure to fix it. That'll all be over with in a few weeks. If my week had not been stressful enough, after everything else I am the victim of larceny. Someone hates me, and I don't have a job.

tl;dr: I am miserable. I have no car, I have no computer, I have a mysterious lump on my neck, and I have no money. See you eventually.

Wow that sucks =(. Sorry about all your problems, I've been having a rough few weeks but I won't go into that. I hope your life turns around =)!

Diagnostics completed. My old laptop is but a memory now. I am currently using Windows 7. It's ugly and I hate it. Oh well, at least I'll have a home computer. And I'll get my car back tomorrow (even though it was supposed to be ready today), and then the day after tomorrow, I've got a CT scan to get done, so don't blame me if I'm not around too much this week, but I'll try to be online. So see you, hopefully.

I really want Windows 7.
So how's it ugly? From the screen-shots I've seen it looks amazing. (and videos)
Whenever I get a new computer I plan on getting W-7, so maybe you could post your opinions on it as a whole. It'd be nice if you could be objective about it and not biased. Not saying you would, but there are too many fan-boys for Operating Systems.
