Ghost in my Machine.

Gabriel · 10-04-2002, 10:36 PM

I'm slowly starting to believe my computers alive.
It only works when threatened and sulks when hit.
When I change the a piece, it breaks.
But works when the old are replaced.
It doesn't distrust new software and eats fopply disks.
A demented A.I. born from a nest of gilts.
I think it a women, a real little bitch.

A poem on my computer and the crap she put me through, not copied as far as I know.

Sounds like your PC is old and decrepit now Gabriel. Maybe you need to get a newer one? Any PC that still as a floppy disk slot is definitely an oldie. Prices for PCs are really not that bad right now, heck you can get a Dell for $700 or so now, which is a lot cheaper than what it was two years ago. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hey you think that's old? A friend of mine has to use a computer that still uses tapes. That's right. . . I said tapes. You know the ones that look like cassettes? Her monitor only barely works and now that she's spilt something on her keyboard that no longer functions properly. You tell me which is older.

Have no credit? check with the people at Dell! my son is 20 and had no credit he could of asked me for for a couple grand for a computer Since he is still in college and I would have given it to him But,No he had to do it on his own. He contacted Dell and because he is a student has a part time job and lives at home they gave him a 1.4gig pent4 with DVD Burner & CD Burner combo w/60gig Hard drive 64MB ATI 3D accelerator for $39.00 per month also got the 19" flat screen monitor in the deal. he just said it also has sound blaster 5 something with Harmon cardon speakers tomarrow we are going to run a cable from my computer to to his . so check out the options
