I wanted to blame the Mercury Retrograde, but I just needed a Windows Update. Thank you @google for saving my arse (and work!)
O Hai, my name is christie and clearly i have nothing better to do than spend upwards of 12 hours in the last two days to upgrade, then downgrade, then upgrade, then downgrade, then strip, and then reload my system not once, not twice, but thrice. All this, only to have my photo program (which comes pre-packaged on my machine and is supposed to be part of the OS) disappear from my applications, so that i can once again play phone tag with tech support who tell me to call them, and then conveniently don't call me back. When i get antsy and call them, it turns out that in the hour i waited, their workday ended. FAIL. (wimper. make it stop. the lambs are screaming)
Seriously peeps, i had a crappy day that made me want to throw things. So, i finally got past the techy stupidity (because, as my facebook page says, "when tech support people fix & then unfix an issue & THEN have her spend hours working with them until they finally frakkin read that the new software they made her download isn't compatible with what she said she needed to do FROM THE START that should be considered STEALING. i would like to sue for my 150 minutes back. Oh, & p.s. i still need to be able to print you asshats.") i went to the gym and funneled my rage into killing it on my lifts and resistance. RAWR.
Then i came home, got some things done (finally! Hours lost to tech support that i will never get back! Whine), ate some pizza, tried to take pics of that, failed, and then decided to do something that always makes me happy: watching GOOD EATS.
Alton Brown is my hero, even when he makes things i can't or don't eat, even when he uses mayonaise ( = most disgusting substance on the planet) in things that don't strictly need it, even when he is silly beyond the pale. He saved the day! My hero :)
Also, whoa, day 95. Need to start thinking about day 100 - that went very fast!
I disassembled the old Compaq Armada E500 using a PDF service manual I found on HP's website. I removed the keyboard, touchpad, NIC card (though I will probably put that back in in my final product), the CMOS battery (which I will probably put back in my final product), the wiring harness that went to the Multibay to support a second or third battery, as well as the parallel port and PS/2 port.
So what's left? The motherboard, the voltage regulator board (on bottom, not seen in picture), the hard drive (also on bottom, not pictured, and may be replaced with a CF card at a later date), RAM, and the PCMCIA slots, in which I will install a cheapo wireless card.

Today we spent waaaay too much time trying to install a wireless router at my house... between NetGear, ComCast, and some other company, I think Michael was on the phone with tech support for over 2 hours! :-(
Michael is a dear friend who lives in the rental unit I built under my house. He's also an amazing opera singer and voice teacher.
I say "Thanks!!!" to the developers of my new HP Pavillion. You made the Vista "WOW" effect possible.

No doubt, HP laptops are cool and good but you need to know how you can choose the best HP laptop for you.
it’s your most important tool in today’s work. So, here are a few things to consider before making this important purchase.
...fixing dumb problems.
I'm occasionally a tech support drone, despite my job title which says "computer scientist".
Now before you dismiss me as yet another cranky helpdesk tech, I'd like say that I am usually very patient regardless of whatever the problem users are facing, even if it's the kind pictured above.
What really makes me furious is not being able to solve a problem because of silly things like politics. Those are the truly dumb problems.
