Heh. A friend of mine keeps going through harddrives and
soundcards - two drives and a 'blaster last week, plus his
current harddrive is losing sectors at an alarming pace.
And my throat hurts.
It's over! We're all gonna diiii...well, maybe our hardware
is.
Just while I'm posting this, let's try something on topic
for once:
I'm browsing for updates to Mandrake now, and noticed there's
a kernel-2.2.13 update. What have they done?!? The latest on
ftp.kernel.org and its mirrors is .12!
Is this a warp in time, straight to Linus' desk?
O- nny, doomsday prophet (going OT quickly)
