Aughghghgh
Seriously. First the entertainmentweakly.com server motherboard gets fried in an entirely properly-executed BIOS update, necessitating the purchase of a new one. This is after the third wireless card failed to work properly, and my realization that it was probably the motherboard more than the cards. Next, I wake up this morning and the Power Mac 5500 that I use as my bedroom TV is kaput. Well, that's not true. The monitor is kaput, the computer itself works fine. Of course, since the monitor and computer are all one unit, you can pretty much see where this leaves me.I'm really not in a position of having the money to go around and buy things, but it's pretty vital that I have EW up and running, since that's where I type my papers and such. It's also where I do the work on my record, which has obviously come to a complete standstill in all this.The lesson? Cheap products are cheap for a reason.Last night's party was the proverbial off-the-hook. I'll write more later. I'll post pics, too, but I'm going to have to use photosite since, well, EW is down.
