Lite blogging

Blogging is a bit lite today as I've doing some work in the real world.

This guy loaded Windows XP on an old computer with 64meg of Ram, creates 5 accounts for his family and wonders why it's running so slow. Add to that the HD had never been defragged, was 7GB with virtualy no free space. It took me over two hours just to delete 4 of the accounts and recover just over 3GB of disk space. It's defragging now and god knows how long that's going to take. All so he can give it to his niece when I'm done. Then I have to set up his daughters new laptop and set up a wireless internet connection. Oh, well, it's beer money.

cheers, marc
