Sucking sound

“Can you hear that sound? No, it’s not a broken fan, it’s Windows sucking.” When our new “computer guy” restarted our servers this morning (he’s working on email) both came up with a different Blue Screen of Death (BSOD).

This is unacceptable. These servers are fine reliable Dell hardware, running only standard, recent Microsoft software. We haven’t done anything non-standard. This isn’t the first time they’ve done this, either. And moving from the M$ proprietary stuff off to Unix is annoying enough that we haven’t done it. Better bump up that priority.

So now every five minutes someone runs into the office asking, “Are the computers working yet? ‘Cause I tried mine and it still doesn’t work.”
