Speaking of laptops

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

You know what I discovered when I went to setup some things on that laptop so someone could use it today? The last person to take it out returned it sans power adapter! Since the battery is not charged, it’s pretty much useless until we either find it, or order a replacement. (I don’t have any extras, and I would give them the adapter to my personal laptop but it’s a different manufacturer and doesn’t work with it.)We’ve got a call in to the place where it was used last to see if it was left behind. Let’s hope they find it and ship it back. Not that anything can help those people who wanted to use it today. They’ll just have to do without.

    Had my head down in research most of today, putting together pricing proposals for a new ISP. As many of you may remember, our current internet connection at work is donated bandwidth, basically piggy-backing off another company’s network. Some higher ups aren’t happy with the level of service we’ve been getting (it’s free, sometimes that…

    Because of us leaving for Myrtle Beach right after work, and needing to get the monthly invoicing done before a meeting that managed to get moved to first thing in the morning, Angela dropped me off at the office early this morning. A full hour before I normally get here. (And I usually get here 15…

    Seems like I get a heck of a lot of traffic to my article on spyware from folks looking for ways to run kazaa or other file sharing services without the ads, or without the tracking. Could it be that you’re actually getting sick of all the intrusiveness? Or are you just worried that someone’s…

    Thanks to Andy for pointing to the list of Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 issues. I haven’t installed it on anything yet, so this’ll be a nice resource to have. BTW, I’m not neglecting my job, we don’t actually have anything running 2000 in the whole office. It’s either XP or NT here. I do,…

    After having internet connection outages during most of the morning yesterday, we had one at home last night. Weird, but it appears that everything is back to normal this morning. Work shouldn’t be too difficult today, I have a ton of work that needs to be done for both month and year-end, but none of…
