h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

 Today, I installed a brand new hard-drive and discovered the rather unpleasant world of out-of-date BIOS chips. Obviously, it was INCONCEIVABLE to the builders of my archaic machine that I might want a disk drive capable of holding more than one program simultaneously and so it debunked my insistence to install a new drive with a passion and a fury quite unseen in modern computing. Grr. Anyway, the good news is (no it doesn't work yet but...) in my anger and frustration I consumed large quantities of tea and coffee and I rather like these beverages so I feel a little better. Ooh look - it's quater-past two - I think I shall go to bed as I've got a busy day of not-getting-my-drive to work to look forward to tommorrow.
