Frankenstein’s Desktop
After my discovery that notebook PCs cannot swim, followed by difficulties with the power regulation in the outlet I was using at home, followed by buying a new PC, followed by that PC being stolen from my truck, followed by getting a new PC donated from a good friend, followed with tons of compatibility problems with Ubuntu, followed by the running of the bulls in Pamploma, followed by assorted escapades involving peanut brittle, Daniel Boone, and a titmouse named “Slinky”, I am back online, albeit with a really lousy video card, and shuffling through all my accumulated emails.
Your patience is appreciated or, failing that, please resend urgent messages if I didn’t respond the first time.

Sounds like you need a MAC and a good UPS system to hook it to. Sorry about the theft, can’t take security for granted these days. Your Uncle.

Wow, what a pleasant surprise! Do I have you as a permanent reader now?
By ‘MAC’ do you mean ‘Macintosh’, that product line in which they usurped the Linux kernel, made sure it only ran on locked-down hardware, and then made it all-but-inaccessible under layers of prettiness and wholly-owned software? Just checking. :^p
Good to hear from you!
