The Dark Side calls again
The latest McAfee update seems to have bunged up my PC. Internet Explorer comes up blank and inert. So does McAfee too, and I can't even uninstall it. McAfee's tech thinks it's a Microsoft problem, gave me the 800 sales number. Fortunately, Firefox is still working.
Sensing opportunity, the Dark Side has been thought-casting into my brain again. Would a Mac really be better? No, no, have to learn all new software. But wouldn't it be simpler? No, PinkMonkeyBird spent a lot of time just upgrading to Tiger. But aren't Mac's just cool, especially with a flat screen? No, you'll get over it when you see the price. But when is Microsoft going to make up its mind - 98, Me, 2000, XP, MediaCenter? So what, you were due for new hardware anyway.
