I spent ages attempting to get ubuntu to connect to the internets then another ages installing it to USB. And now it's 10.00 and I've got next to nothing done-epic fail.
Then again stumbling has cheered me up. It's just that my nice revision timetable has just discovered the meaning of the word 'history.' Over the past few days I've been experimenting with various other browsers and the 'cube' effect. They all failed of course...the problem with 3D browsers is that no-one wants 3dness. Quite frankly, it eats ram and doubles the time it takes to get anything done. I'm all for eye-candy, but not pointless candy...that's like eating sweets without being able to taste them.
Ah well, sooner or later I'll force myself to get back to the less solitary pastimes such as snailing, msning and writing. At least I got this post in...that's a start!!
