I fixed a Mac today

[fury]

It was an old piece of junk, but it was annoying to keep having to close out all the error messages at startup.

Quicktime was trying to install itself while it was already installed, so I went into the extensions folder and saw there were two versions of quicktime, so I drug out the first one into the hard drive root folder and then set the timezone to chicago, IL (even though I'm in greenwood, IN, they were the closest to my timezone).

Works fine now.

Hey, I might buy the damn thing just to learn how to use mac os... never know, Billy might go out of business, *nix might start to suck, and Mac OS 9 and below will be the only thing left on the planet.

 

[Gonz]

Nix sucks...WOOHOO

Can I be next?

 

[fury]

Ooh ooh, pick me first Nixy.

 

[Squiggy]

Just think, fury...That would have been a 3 day job on a PC.

 

[HeXp£Øi±]

I don't believe you for a second. Why? Because macs can't be fixed.

 

[Squiggy]

I fix mine every day....Else I couldn't come here and boycott.

 

[Nixy]

*nix might start to suck

Oh boy, you're a little late on that one...I started sucking over 2.5 years ago...

 

[Professur]

And you're not finished yet? Hurry up already.

 

[Nixy]

No no no I meant I sucked for the FIRST time over 2.5 years ago...LOL

 

[Professur]

And?

No no no I meant I sucked for the FIRST time over 2.5 years ago...LOL

You know, four or five responses have popped into my head, but living with my wife for 11 years has made me too polite to say any of them.
*sigh*

I thought this thread was going to be about needlework.

I've fixed macs several times before. I had to fix one up so I could upgrade my computer at the Atascadero News (Summer 2001) to replace the crappy mac on my desk with one that would take less than 5 minutes to load pagemaker.

If I cared about politeness I wouldn't be openly talking about giving head LOL

 

[Professur]

Giving head???? I thought you were talking about smoking pot.

 

[Nixy]

No, I was talking about giving head. It was less than 2 years ago that I first smoked pot...

 

[Professur]

Y'know, Nixy, everytime you say that, my skin tries to crawl off me.
