Why DO I use Windows?

My friends are asking me this all the time.

The latest foray that makes me question my sanity was trying to upgrade my main machine at home from Vista to Windows 7. Windows 7 is great they say (I guess compared to Vista; which was two days spent just for that Aero thingie).

After 12 hours, I have abandoned the upgrade path and am doing a fresh install, which means reinstalling all my programs. This was after 2 separate hangs, and applying a Microsoft fixit for the infamous 62 percent hang.



I've played with a MAC, guess the ONLY thing thats keeping me back, even after almost free MS stuff from the MS store, is the investment in software and that many of my favorite pieces of software don't run on a MAC.....

Happy Kwanzakuhmas!

However you celebrate this joyous season it's another opportunity to be thankful for family and friends, past and present, here and above.

As we've aged, its no longer about giving of gifts, but of love and ourselves.

I wish everyone the happiest of holiday seasons.

The Aftermath

Looking back on the party it seemed be a big success. Lots of work and fun. The
