kickahaI got my new work laptop.
I've been using it <10min. So far, I've rebooted three times due to updates, patches, upgrades, and generally this thing being a royal pain in the ass about throwing up dialogs, beeps, 'informational balloons' and other useless crap in my face.
"Wireless networks are not available." Um, I just set that up, and you said it was. "Wireless network now available." Finally. "Wireless networks are not available." Go. Away. "Wireless network now available." Listen, I don't care, I'm on cabled Enet. "Wireless networks are not available." I. Don't. Care. See this cable? Don't make me horsewhip you with it. "Wireless network now available." Who's up for a six martini lunch?
And so it goes. Welcome to hell.
