Aspire One BIOS of DOOM – the Saga Continues
Well, the last time I left this topic, it appeared that UPS had destroyed my netbook. Today, I found that it had actually made it to Acer in one piece. Not only that, but they replaced the motherboard (even though I added RAM, stripped a screw, and voided the warranty) and shipped it back priority overnight!
So now I sit working on my next project – Windows 7 on the Aspire One. I’ll post the results later!
One of those moments
I was sitting down for lunch today, eating a steak sandwich and reading a news paper, when it struck me: when did I grow up?
Seven years ago I graduated from high school. Five years ago I moved out for the first time, going halfway across the country in the process. Four years ago, I moved back. Three years ago I fell in love, and Two years ago I got married. One year ago I was layed off and had to take a job I hated. Eight months ago a Neurologist confirmed that the pain I’ve experienced episodically for the past eight years has a name: Cluster Headaches. Six months ago I quit that job and moved to a better one. Three months ago I quit that one for my dream job.
Even after breaking it down, I still can’t figure out when I grew up. Does it even matter?
