Hey I'm back online!
I had a lot of PC trouble lately - it didn't boot, only after several tries (sometimes with the need to reenter date and time in the bios), and then froze again after a while, just to give me trouble again with the reboot. After a miserable 30 to 45 minutes it worked perfectly ok, but at this point in time I was usually sick and tired of the whole thing and went to bed in a foul mood. This situation had been going on for weeks and months, and it had deteriorated to the point that I rather watched TV than doing something useful.
In the end I couldn't help it, I had to buy a new computer.
The new toy has an AMD 64 3500+, 2GB ram and 400GB disk space.
It is not only silent, it's practically noiseless except of the occasional whisper of the disk array. And it's fast, although I didn't buy into dual core processor technology. No more swapping with more than one picture open, or an oracle database running in the background.
So, I'll be around again!
