My first post here, appropriately enough, is a rant against technology, specifically computers and IT. Information is an understatement. Google on anything you choose, and you receive more options than you could possibly view. Try to find an answer to a specific problem, however, and you might as well be searching for the proverbial needle in a haystack.
DSL is a recent addition to my tech woes. We signed up for it so that we might listen to Pandora whenever we choose. I also like to check out the bands at MySpace and the music videos at YouTube. After adding a router to my set up, everything has gone down hill. I can't get help from D-Link or Copper.net, at least nothing that seems to work. The router is over 30 days old now, so I can't return it to Fry's.
My complaint with computers as a species is this: there is too damn much that can go wrong with them. The complexities rival the challenge of understanding the human brain. All I need is a solution to an HTTP error (22002 or something like that, when I do an XP diagnostic) which is causing both browsers to time out. Why do these things keep happening to me? There are other souls out there with the same problem and other resolutions that don't seem to work for my Dell.
I am truly sorry that I invested my hard earned dollars in all this crap.
End of rant! Happy Sunday.
