After a truly crap day, rounding off what was generally a fairly good week, I am not in a good mood.
Tonight, not only have I failed to update MSN IM (again!), but in the process, it has completely wiped IM from my PC. It is currently failing to install MSN Explorer, whilst playing such aggravating music that I had to turn the sound off.
Little things pile on top of one another... I've had enough. I hate 'puters, I hate my job, I hate everything right now! Just want to run away from it all...

Today has just got more crap though. Space moderated, had enough, leaving now.

Do I see some toys leaving the pram there?
Calm down and repeat after me -
"Its only a computer, everything it does can be broken down to ons and offs and I have the power to turn it off"
The swear at it, threaten it, pull it's chips out and use them in talking Barbie dolls.
On a serious front - stop using ME, get a friendly PC guru to remove your important stuff, install Win 98 (until XP has at least one service pack realesed) and start again.
Off now for a week - have fun

Nah, just go with 2k Professional. Cheap, now that XP is out (student license is about £60, if you know where to go), fast, reliable (mine hasn't crashed yet) and generally rather nice.
