FRUSTRATION.
First, my office printer won’t print a damn thing. Nothing. Nada.
Now, my TV at home has sound issues. No, not just loud commercials – it gets louder and softer during programs and that’s fun. [sarcasm]Electronics… why can’t they all be built by Macintosh?
My iBook I bought in 2002, STILL WORKS.
And it never got a virus.
My iPod (the big, bulky classic) I bought in 2005, STILL WORKS.
My iMac that I’m typing on, purchased in 2006, starts up in under 30 seconds.
The mouse puttered out, but that’s all that has “failed” with this ‘puter.
My iPod Shuffle has been charged maybe twice & I used that almost everyday this last fall.Errrg.
And, on an unrelated note, where do I get a free credit score? I feel like I should check up on that; I got three letters yesterday from credit card companies who’ve finally closed my unused accounts.
On an unrelated, but happy note, it supposed to snow very lightly today AND we’re going to be above zero. Chuck the parka in the corner, folks!

Steve Jobs is ill, you know. If he retires even Macintosh electronics won’t work.
@ordinarybutloud - But what about the dude who dated Kathy Griffin.
I can’t believe you’re being facetious before noon.
Everyone knows it’s Jobs and not Woz. I don’t have any arbitrary time restrictions. I’m drinking a bourbon and diet coke, too.
@ordinarybutloud - Not everyone, because I didn’t.
And typically, if I’m facetious (or start swearing) before noon… it’s going to be an “interesting” day.
I’ve never heard of anyone swearing at only certain times of the day. You know I’m not REALLY drinking bourbon and diet coke, right?

Every time I went to go print something, a box would appear telling me that the printer wasn’t communicating with the printer. So I called my husband in here last night to help me figure it out, and bam! It worked with no problems. I hate that. Not exactly like your situation, but… yeah.
