What A Way To Spend An Evening

About 4 hours ago I started cleaning up the data on my computer because it was acting like I had somehow spilled peanut butter in it. Did the normal diagnostics, cleanups, defrags. Then I did several uninstalls of obsolete or useless programs that I had managed to invest in over the past couple of years.

Then it was time for another round of cleanup and defrag.

So far I have managed to shave an amazing 3 minutes off the startup but it is still way too long.

After posting this and reading some other posts, it's back to tweaking this some more.

Is there a computer gnome someplace that is just laughing himself silly right now?

Look what I got for Christmas already that I didn’t even know I needed

If you had asked me a few days ago about what I needed or wanted for Christmas, the answer would have been easy. There was nothing that I wanted. Nothing that I had to have. Nothing that I just couldn’t live without. There was not one thing I longed for or absolutely had to have or wouldn’t be complete without.

That was until my computer crashed.

I am now in possession of a brand new, faster, larger computer that should serve my needs until it decides one day to stop working – or 3 years, whichever comes first. That’s about the longest I’ve ever had a computer.

Well anyway I have my Christmas present - unexpected though it was. Now I’m set.
