    Given the age and cranky behaviour of my computer I wouldn’t wish those personality traits on anyone. Oh, hang on..that sort of describes me. Looks like Sydney was right.

      I remember having an old computer a decade ago. It was purchased in 1995 so after more than 10 years of use, it had started its inevitable march to the junkyard. I had to kick it hard every time I turn it on 🙂 Good times…
