Just a Tuesday

I went to a client I hadn't seen since last year - several small problems, one hour to make a few fixes. She's very conscientious and doesn't download a lot of garbage. I could use more clients like her.

Visited a new client - with an interesting problem: Blue Screen of Death. I love those. This time, it was a Turtle Beach sound driver. TB is crap - avoid it. I've never heard anything good about it. It was a good platform in the 90s.

In addition, their PC is slow as hell. It has 256MB RAM, so no surprise there, plus the notorious Norton IS, Protection Center, and Password Manager. With only 256 RAM, its like cutting through a glacier with a crab fork. I have another 256 SIMM (not much help) - maybe they'll want to get a little faster. The PC is simply not going to be usable until Norton is removed like in the Exorcist.

Of course, they also have a 40GB HDD. I have another 40 I could sell them (*cheap!*) but they need something for additional storage.
