One of the charms of Windows Vista is random error messages. I can be working away (best as I can) on my computer, and suddenly, a program I’m not even using will have “quit working”. Windows suggests that it is “looking for a solution to the problem”, but it may as well be looking for Jimmy Hoffa – it ain’t gonna happen…

Just now, some sort of benign program “quit working”. I think it was a monitor for a program. This, clear and out of the blue. If that is even an accepted phrase.

In these instances, I allow Windows Vista to go through a few harmless motions, ultimately resulting in a blank stare from Windows, and an awkward confession that there is about as much chance of the software working properly, as there is that Britney Spears will win a round of Jeopardy: For Ages Kindergarten & Under.

So, although my three recent days of technical support have resolved a number of outstanding issues, not even the gods of Valhalla stand a chance of ever making Windows Vista entirely wrinkle-free.

I do loves me technology…

Chow for now!!
